I love Scentsy and the people I work for. Scentsy gives opportunities for employees to learn and develop within the company, even when they don’t have experience. I started as a basic Manufacturing Operator and have been able to grow and develop into a Master Certified Operator. Scentsy is so generous with their employees and provides us with great benefits. I am so thankful for this opportunity. This was my first job in the United States. I moved to the United States in 2008 from Argentina. I joined the Scentsy Family in 2010. I have learned so much during my time at Scentsy and I am forever thankful for this opportunity. — RAMONA (ROM I) QUI ROS / MANUFACTURI NG MASTER CERTI FI ED OPERATOR

HAT SETS YOUR COMPANY APART AS ONE OF THE BEST PLACES TO WORK IN DIRECT SELLING?
That’s easy—our people! We care about each other, and we care about doing things right for our Consultants and customers. We have a large, unique support center where we focus on our Consultants and treat them like family. We don’t have scripts; we have conversations. Co-owners, Heidi and Orville Thompson consider themselves caretakers of this business. They help us to put our focus on being the best we can be and helping others (our Consultants) to be their best. We get to work in an inspiring 770,000 square-foot office, manufacturing, warehouse and distribution space on a stunning 73-acre campus. Every inch of it was designed with employees in mind: Three miles of fragrant walking paths, bright working spaces and a “family kitchen” as a central gathering place. Our family atmosphere extends to our distribution centers in Texas and South Carolina, our call center in Poland, a regional office in Canada and our employees in Australia and the UK. HOW DOES YOUR COMPANY BRING THE SAME RED-CARPET TREATMENT TO YOUR EMPLOYEES THAT YOU GIVE TO YOUR DISTRIBUTORS?
The Thompsons believe in “contributing more than you take,” and that generous philosophy is infused in everything they do for employees. In 2021, our revenue reached an incredible benchmark! As we achieved monthly and annual revenue milestones, we thanked employees for their hard work by providing bonus paid time off at the end of the year. This resulted in employees receiving up to 17 additional days of pay! Another bonus we provide to employees to recognize their dedication to Scentsy is our Long-Term Contribution Bonus which generously rewards employees for their service to Scentsy. Each year we host an all-day employee “convention,” called Employee Culture Day. On this day, the entire
