Melaleuca reviews

Melaleuca is not without its challenges. Many of which are of its own making. The IT department is a disaster. Strong words I know but nevertheless this is the sentiment felt by many. The challenges in the IT department do not come from the dedicated men and women within that are desperately trying to keep their heads above water as new business requirements rain down and staffing levels remain low. The challenges/problems come from the leadership or lack thereof. The negativity and lack of communication that exudes down from the CIOs office is abhorrent. Melaleuca started off about a year ago with yet another new CIO. The one prior had issues but at least there was an attempt at being a leader and bringing positive change to the department. The current CIO has yet to ever give any kind of direction, public recognition of staff members, or contribute anything positive to the department. Most of the time this person sits in his office browsing the web and lamenting how nobody around here knows what they are doing except for himself. The CIO has a his way or the highway mentality and expects the department to follow along to his beat with no actual direction to what that beat should be. Blind obedience is demanded but no communication of what is expected is conveyed.

They value the people working the downlines much more than the corporate employees. Promotion is based on kissing up to management, not performance. If you're looking to work for a creative company, this isn't it. They'll give you plenty of busywork, and dictate how you do it. Their marketing is way behind the times. No integration whatsoever between the creative team and the web team.
