      Painful work experience

      Pros

      The biggest perk the company has to offer is schedule flexibility for higher grade employees.

      Cons

      Melaleuca lacks leadership from upper management and employs what can only be described as aggressive micromanaging as a management style with lower level managers. Very direspectful of employees, paying educated employees a near minimum wage salary and constantly targeting people to make an example out of. Career development is severely lacking, as there is no training program or opportunities to further education, and it's nearly impossible to get promoted if working in certain categories. Overall, highly frustrating experience for substandard wage.

      Good and bad, but painfully frustrating.

      Pros

      Free products every month. Generally a good work life/balance. Yearly cost of living salary increases (average 2-3 percent) when not ranked poorly. Lots of new projects to work on. Some teams have great team cohesion. Some fun company events throughout the year with entertainment and prizes. Generally a family friendly environment. Relocation was provided for my move.

      Cons

      Work/life is good, until arbitrary deadlines are put on projects. Then expect extreme overtime with inconsistent or no recognition or benefit afterward. Business as usual next day at 8am sharp. Absolutely no support for training or skills expansion. No type of training is allowed on company time or with company resources, pretty hesitant to use anything open source or non-Microsoft, and more.

      Management for Software Development and Information Technology at Melaleuca is a good reference on what NOT to do

      Pros

      They have a really convenient fitness facility in the same building. Though they rarely offered official training, you get a lot of opportunity for hands on self-training. They have a clean work area and have decent hardware.

      Cons

      Lots of overtime (especially at month end and during customer events). Unbalanced ranking system that favors specific individuals, Unreasonible and unflexable deadlines.
