If you call Scentsy a business, wait until you hear what pyramid schemes are..

Ahaha! This is what I am thinking at the moment. Please tell us you're just kidding, OP! LOL

Surely someone at Deloitte would know what a scam Scentsy is. Surely someone from Deloitte is smarter than wanting to become a hun. This has got to be a joke

There are people who make money at multi-level marketing, I ain't one of them, and never will be.

The skill set required (being gregarious, making friends continuously faster than you burn through the pyramid scheme downline, all while selling enough product to replace a full time salary) is just no place close to my engineering wheelhouse.

Almost no one makes money in MLM. Only the top through major recruiting. All FTC numbers show that about 99% make little to no money. Many lose money after personal volume, fees, and standard business costs. You do you,but the rest of us will sit back and laugh. Also, when you fail to rise to the top, Scentsy will not look good on your resume.

I can think of many other sales commission based careers that one can actually make money at, if you have the skill set required (being gregarious, making friends continuously faster than you burn through the pyramid scheme downline, all while selling enough product to replace a full time salary) to make money at MLM.

Business insurance springs to mind, but that's only because I've recently introduced my post-millennial son to the Gilmore Girls.

MLM? Sorry but very few, if any, actually make it to be their main career. Best of luck though.

Not a good choice to have an unapproved side hustle....

I agree with the first sentence. I am not gonna lie I was shocked reading the second sentence. Tell us you're just kidding now.

Wait, what? I hope you're not serious on this one, OP. But to each his own I guess.

LOL. Everyone calm down. The OP's just joking. Or that's what I am hoping for. lol

Funny post! hahha good luck with that venture friend.

Well, do you have any plans of applying for a full-time job again? I think your side hustle will not last long.

Currently going through some negations on an internal role. I’m currently at 88k and they offered me 100k for a position that requires a lot more work.

They stated 120k+ is extremely high for that role. What do you guys think? Playing the game?

Thoughts on “special” salary grades. I just found out the VP I was offered is not a grade 12 like most comparable roles (verified). Also not an 11, but an 11A. Slightly higher than an 11, a good bit lower than a 12. All due to the fact that it’s a leap from my current position. Why should that matter…..shouldn’t it pay what it should pay if I am selected, rather that curving down towards my current rate?
