Pros

This is a great brand with a lot of opportunities for growth. I think it went through a bump which was predicted with a rebrand and now it's lost it's way. MOST of my colleagues were amazing, some are a little full of themselves, but you will find that everywhere. People there are smart, agile and try to be positive even when it's bad. They are in a beautiful building in the middle of the financial district, although I have heard rumblings that they are moving. Pay was reasonable.

Cons

Leadership is frazzled, insurance is not super great, need work on people and culture.

Anonymous--Headquarters

Pros

Health benefits were decent but not much else to say that is positive. Good central location in Chicago but headquarters are now moving to California.

Cons

Company has been like a hot potato--passed on for years from one CEO to another, then to a private equity firm and then to a Japanese cosmetic company. New CEOs for the company on a regular basis. No CEO really had a game plan--they were just winging it. Majority of sales were in Asia and no one seemed to understand the market there. There was no strategy. Many distributors of the brand left because of lack of support. Formulas were weak--no cutting edge ingredients. Almost all the stores in the US and Canada were closed. Being there was like watching a brand die--quickly!
