Pros
I have been with Melaleuca for 13 years, and I have truly enjoyed my decision to work here. I was originally introduced to Melaleuca through a university career fair, began working for them upon graduation, and have stayed with them ever since. There are a number of reasons why I decided to come to work at Melaleuca over other companies and why I continue to stay year after year:
The company has a purpose.
The company truly believes in, and lives, its mission statement of changing lives. We don’t simply build and ship exceptional, world-class consumer products, we provide an opportunity for people to take control of their own future and change it for the better.
Advancement opportunities.
Over my career with Melaleuca, I have been given incredible opportunities to learn new skills and develop new talents. With those opportunities have come career advancements. Melaleuca prides itself in promoting within and helping employees to grow into new roles and responsibilities.
Involvement.
In starting out my career, I didn’t want to go to a company where it would take me years to be given my first opportunity to have in impact and make decisions. My first role gave me empowerment and the ability to control the future of the company within my area of assignment. No matter what level you are at in the company, everyone has the opportunity to be involved, make an impact, and have a positive effect on the company. There is a great team attitude and everyone is working together to help the company be successful. Everyone helps to make the company successful. This includes executive management taking phone orders when things get busy or setting up chairs for a meeting. Everyone rolls up their sleeves and makes sure that our customers are taken care of.
I am looking forward to working with Melaleuca for many years to come.
Cons
As noted above, there is a very strong culture of everyone being involved. This means that those individuals who don’t have the attitude of team work and helping out, may not fit it.
