Pros

Free product every month. Health insurance is outstanding. Products good. However, they just take products off of the shelf and have their scientists deconstruct them and then add a different component and then Melaleuca calls it their own and "launches" the "new" product. Because they are a private company, they can do this. The FDA doesn't govern their products.

Cons

Upper management is a "good old boy" system. Having new ideas, innovative technology ideas, or thinking differently than management = firing or being "managed out" (as their human resource department refers to it.) Cycle over new employees every 2-3 years to get rid of middle management and earned raises. Have fired or are firing many right before their performance bonuses were to be paid out. Poor management style which creates an atmosphere of distrust, fear, and disgust.

Pros

Great to work for, the people are kind and willing to help you with any problem you run into.

Pros

- side benefits are okay - it is a median sort of job - I personally have some freedom do to personal professional development on the clock when there is no immediate need for my work (happens very little) - People half listen once they know you have been at Melaleuca after about 5 years

Cons

- No management that knows what they are doing - Not very customer-focused - Don't seek to fulfill their strategic imperatives or strategies or mission - Very hard for people to listen to you because you're new - They don't have a lot of integrity - Very slow to solve problems - Don't worry about making improvements in processes or tools we use - Slow AI usage and no proficiency in AI usage, strategies or implementation - Managers micromanage because Melaleuca is "unique" - Most of the positive things they tout all the time serves only the company's image, not the employees - Don't worry about giving raises in a timely manner - Not goal-oriented employer And I could probably keep going, but will stop here.
