      I LOVE MY MARY KAY!

      Pros

      I love working for Mary Kay. I set my own hours, goals and the potential is AWESOME! I win prizes every quarter and make money at the same time. If I need some extra cash I just make a few phone calls and VIOLA! The opportunity to help other ladies is fun and I meet new people all the time. The best part is I AM THE BOSS. I decide how I want to work and when.

      Cons

      There really is no downside. It is what you make it.

      Pros

      Mary Kay is a great company to work for because you are working for yourself. You are your own boss; an independent business owner without all of the overhead. It is a business that you can work a lot for large pay off or a little for some extra cash on the side. The mentors above you are vested in you and have walked in your footsteps to get where they are; they are helpful and knowledgable. Be sure to choose your Mary Kay Business Partner (recruiter) well so that you can be involved with a unit that is growing, provides education for you - or will find a local director to adopt you for training, and that is positive. Mary Kay's mission is to Enrich Women's Lives....and it does!

      Cons

      You need to be motivated to work for yourself. What are your dreams? Where do you want to be in 5 years? If you worked your hardest at your current job, could you significantly change your financial situation? The sky is the limit with Mary Kay; the biggest paycheck is yet to be paid....career cars are waiting to be awarded...but you have to be willing to put in the work and be coachable and teachable to get to the top!

      Mary Kay is More than just lipstick....it's a company with endless opportunities!

      Pros

      I get to be my own boss and I truly get to prioritize my faith, family, and career all in that order so that I can balance my life and be successful at the same time. This company has the highest commission than any other direct sales company in the US. I think the best part is that anyone can work this business whether you have 2 hours or 40 hours a week to put into to it. The company is designed for anyone that desires something more in their life. This is a Recession Proof company where layoffs don't exist!

      Cons

      Being your own boss can get tricky. You are the CEO, the Marketing Director,and of course the Consultant! No Motivation= Frustration!
