Pros

At the corporate HQ, people are friendly, culture is focused on enriching women, company is doing well, especially outside the US, and customers are loyal to the high quality products. Great employee benefits, health insurance, etc.

Cons

Company is changing from a US centric mindset to a multinational or global perspective, which causes some stress as best ideas are now coming from all over the world, not just from the headquarters in Dallas. Plus, different countries have differing needs, so that also adds other levels of complexity.

Pros

Wonderful coworkers, amenities at the Mary Kay Building, and overall a mostly pleasant place to work from a day to day perspective.

Cons

Senior management seems totally lost. Strategy is ever shifting, and seems based more on whatever management's current flight of fancy happens to be. Little to nothing has been done to address the very real long-term issues related to the business. There's a reluctance to meaningfully change or address systemic issues leading to an existential risk to the business. It's so bad, the former CEO is suing the current CEO for mismanaging the company. They are father and son. It's that bad.
