I LOVE working at Scentsy because it feels like home— we truly are a family! We have this unique community of people from all different walks of life coming together to create a culture that you can’t help but want to be a part of. Scentsy truly emanates its core values of Generosity, Authenticity and Simplicity. It’s easy to love your job when you love the people that you work with—and they love you right back! I began working at Scentsy when I was a teenager. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to be a part of something amazing here, watching Scentsy grow while also growing myself in a fulfilling career. And I can’t wait to see what the future holds and to continue growing with Scentsy! ­— LIZ DAVI S / C O N S U LTA NT S U P P O RT FU N CTI O N A L LE A D

HAT MAKES YOUR COMPANY ONE OF THE BEST PLACES TO WORK IN DIRECT SELLING?

It really is about the people. It is more than each individual but how we all band together. Whether it is to complete a project, pitch in and help where needed, or just have a conversation and check-in with someone. It is seen in teams all across the company and seen in individuals. Teams continually pull together to defeat all odds and pull together to complete overwhelming tasks. The generosity of others and how it filters throughout the company is amazing and pure. We focus on our people because they make it a great place to work. We believe that our employees are a huge part of what makes Scentsy special! One of the ways we make employees feel valued is by offering incredible non-traditional benefits for them. Some examples include an on-site cafeteria with subsidized meals, a free on-site fitness center, generous paid time off, flexible work schedules, end-of-year bonuses, and various other offerings. Plus, we have our own gokarts, giant stuffed Scentsy Buddies and on-site dogs that bring a smile to all—and we eat a lot of cake!

HOW DOES YOUR COMPANY BRING THE SAME REDCARPET TREATMENT TO YOUR EMPLOYEES THAT YOU GIVE TO YOUR DISTRIBUTORS?

In 2020, Scentsy was blessed with unexpected hypergrowth of revenue. This required all employees to rally together to ensure Scentsy could thrive during the unexpected demands. Heidi and Orville wanted to thank, motivate and reward employees for all their hard work and share the revenue that came in. As we achieved certain revenue milestones, employees received one week of pay per milestone as a bonus at the end of the year. This resulted in employees receiving five additional weeks of pay! Another bonus that was introduced in 2020 is our long-term contribution bonus, in which employees are generously rewarded and recognized for their longevity and commitment to Scentsy. This past year gave us all the opportunity to determine what was truly needed to dig in and keep things going.
