Pros

, was not a good company to work for in my opinion. I worked in the Rexburg call Center as a Spanish Customer Service Representative, and was promoted to basically a made-up position called “Team Lead”. This company continually told me of how they want you to move up and how they promote from within. As far as the call Center does, you had better be good buddies with someone who makes that decision, because if you aren’t, no chance. They pride themselves in being the “best company to work for” in Southeast Idaho. Far be it from the truth in my opinion. There were other benefits but overall I’m very dissatisfied with having spent nearly three years working in this call Center and having worked my butt off to network within the company, I worked hard and was a consistent performer, yet no way to move up. I know it may be tempting to work here if you’re a student in Rexburg but trust me...you’re probably better off. This job sucks out your soul and this company gives false feelings of how highly they think of you all the time. - Decent pay for Rexburg - $90 product check - 401k with match - Some decent people here and there

Cons

- Horrible Management - Favoritism - Call centers kill your soul - Goody-Goody annoying coworkers - Micromanaging culture - Treat you like children - Even if you do move up...they won’t pay you what you’re worth. Trust me.

Pros

You get free products every month.

Cons

Many of the positive reviews you see are written by Marketing Executives, i.e. independent sales reps who work from home, not at the company headquarters. Don't be fooled by these. They don't have to deal with the same crap as actual employees. Management at global headquarters is terrible. They don't communicate with people further down the chain, make strange and unreasonable demands, crack racist jokes in meetings, and have created a hostile work environment for anybody who doesn't suck up to them. Don't expect any help from HR because they will always side with management if there's a problem. The CEO also owns the local radio station, so be prepared to hear his voice endorsing political candidates while you drive to work in the middle of a field that smells like manure. Don't be surprised to see political candidates blocking the only way out when you get off in the evening because the CEO thought you needed another reminder to vote for his favorite candidate. And try not to think about irony when the company sells "environmentally friendlier" cleaning products while you eat lunch off of styrofoam plates and are encouraged to vote for climate change deniers.

Pros

I genuinely enjoy working with the other people of the company. I get along well with my co-workers.

Cons

The salary simply sucks, unless you are a VP or something. Raises each year are typically under 1% for an employee. There are not very many career growth opportunities because Melaleuca's policy is to have a high turnover rate and pay their employees far below what they are worth.
