Pros

The Mary Kay environment was very positve place. A great place for other business minded women to come together and support each other. If you get a good leader it is a great place to learn.

Cons

Pushes right away to recruit others. I had my open house and they wanted me to recruit already! I wasn't familar with all their products yet and I wasn't comfortable selling the business yet. They offer to buy back your products if you deciede that the business is not for you, but what they don't tell you is that if you do that you can never sell it again. In your life time. So if I deceided to sell Mary Kay again for example when I retire. I will not be able to.

Pros

mary kay is a great company to work for. They have the flexibility of setting your own hours. The sky is the limit!

Cons

sometimes the flexibility is too much if you cannot manage your time well. you need to determine if you need structure, then set a schedule for yourself.

Pros

It allows for you to make as much money as you want. If you only want to make an extra $100 a month, you can do that with minimum effort. If you really want to make this into a career, it is a possibility as well.

Cons

It is easy to get frustrated when a lot of people tell you no, but you have to expect that when you go into sales
