Unbelievably Successful Company

Pros

Fast-paced, high-energy, mission-driven, CUSTOMER-centered, EMPLOYEE-built, privately-held company approaching $2B in annual sales with a 32 year growth record. An amazing and challenging environment perfect for personal and team growth and development.

Cons

If one does not appreciate or is challenged by an environment where personal leadership, responsibility and contribution at high levels is the expectation then Melaleuca likely will be an uncomfortable home.

Pros

-Product checks, the equivalent of 30 dollars every month to spend on company products. (they say 80 dollars but the products are priced so ridiculously high that is really around 30)

Cons

Make no mistake about it, Melaleuca is a pyramid sales business no matter how much they try to get away from that title. You'll often hear we are "direct to customer" but that is just a cover up for the rigid pyramid that pays higher salaries to the people higher up. Because of this many angry customers call in to cancel their account. Add on to this the astronomical product prices (15 dollar for 6 candy bars, 15 dollars!) and you have a steady stream of furious customers calling in to vent off that frustration on YOU the sales associate.
