Pros

-Great benefits -Really decent healthcare plan. -Excellent coworkers

Cons

-Aggressively underpaid compared to the industry standard. -Lack of transparency including but not limited to with executive level staffing changes. -In the Marketing or special events department you SHOULD expect to be pulled off your work projects to work for the Republican Party or a project for one of Frank’s side businesses or one of his children’s businesses. -CEO surrounds himself with yesmen and has an extraordinary level of involvement in the most minor of things. Because he is involved in too many things this can grind everything to a halt. Progress is slow and getting him to listen to opinions other than his own is very difficult. -The company speaks out of both sides of its mouth. Work/life balance is discussed as being a priority but it’s not recognized. Many people nearly live in their offices due to short staffing. Losing one person at the office almost felt fatal with the amount of work. Then it would take months to get approval for that person to be replaced only to find out Frank didn’t like their Wonderlic test score so we passed on that candidate.

Pros

- side benefits are okay - it is a median sort of job - I personally have some freedom do to personal professional development on the clock when there is no immediate need for my work (happens very little) - People half listen once they know you have been at Melaleuca after about 5 years

Cons

- No management that knows what they are doing - Not very customer-focused - Don't seek to fulfill their strategic imperatives or strategies or mission - Very hard for people to listen to you because you're new - They don't have a lot of integrity - Very slow to solve problems - Don't worry about making improvements in processes or tools we use - Slow AI usage and no proficiency in AI usage, strategies or implementation - Managers micromanage because Melaleuca is "unique" - Most of the positive things they tout all the time serves only the company's image, not the employees - Don't worry about giving raises in a timely manner - Not goal-oriented employer And I could probably keep going, but will stop here.
