Avon Employee Reviews

In this job, I have had so much challenges. I worked every hours and everywhere. Because I am the one who has to make my own customer it was hard for me until i decided to step out and try to talk to everyone near me. It helped me to develop my communication, and making my own customers, I didn't have a co-worker beside my manager. She tells me what to do. the thing I enjoy in this job is when I accomplish the amount of customers I wanted to earn. Also its pleasant , when the customers find the products more exciting that they expected. Its has been really fun to work here.

Pros

some % off the product for my family

Cons

none

Was good for fellowship

Sales Representative (Former Employee) - Mississippi - August 28, 2023

Avon was good for making friends and staying busy but it wasn’t a good place to earn money. I was at the top in my division and recruited many people but could have worked a regular job the same hours and made a lot more money.

Not the good ole Avon like it was

Sales Representative (Current Employee) - Richmond, VA - August 24, 2023

The items they sell are very expensive esp. clothes. They don't offer the Mens tools etc. for Fathers Day anymore. Add a new cologne everytime you turn around. Not worth the money unless you bust butt.

Rewarding and exciting

Avon Independent Sales Representative & Recruiter (Current Employee) - Remote - August 14, 2023

What is the best part of working at the company?I get to schedule my own hours, be my own boss, take breaks when I want to, and be there to get my child on and off the bus every single day. I have full control of how I work my business! What is the most stressful part about working at the company?Staying motivated and consistent. The work is not automatically provided. Finding customers is 100% your responsibility but then its not that hard as long as you schedule time to actively go out in public and social media find new customers and following up with your existing ones. What is the work environment and culture like at the company?You're treated like family. They really are there for you

You will have to perform a 3 person job by yourself

This is the worst company that I have worked for

Unknown (Current Employee) - Unknown - June 12, 2023

I had the worst time working there and the people that I was working along needs to be fired for being racistical. I did not feel welcomed at all. I was treated like shh for no reason.
