Halloween: A Spook-tacular Sight at Melaleuca
Once a year, Melaleuca Global Headquarters transforms into a truly spook-tacular sight!
Melaleuca’s annual Halloween celebration—reserved for the children and grandchildren of Melaleuca Team Members— exemplifies the company’s family culture. It’s an event that both young and old look forward to and talk about all year.
For the kids, it’s a moment to dress up as their favorite princess or superhero, march through a multi-themed maze of magical lands, and load up on candy. For parents, it’s an opportunity to take their kids trick-or-treating in a safe, worry-free, and climate-controlled environment. And for Team Members, it’s a chance to express their creative side, act young at heart, and welcome their precious little ones to the office.
“For Melaleuca, the Halloween celebration isn’t just a fun activity,” Vice President of Human Resources Jamie Reynolds says. “It’s part of our culture, which is very family-oriented.”
As Halloween draws near, each department at Melaleuca Global Headquarters picks a theme, be it spooky or silly. Then they each decorate a portion of the Special Events Center and dress up accordingly.
Although there are elaborate decorations and massive cauldrons of candy, Team Members know how to efficiently organize the whole operation. Decorations are impressively put up and taken down in just a few hours, and they continue to work behind the scenes to ensure Melaleuca maintains the high level of productivity, professionalism, and customer service it’s renowned for.
The Halloween celebration is just one of several family-oriented events Melaleuca puts on throughout the year to say thank you to its workforce. These events strengthen the Melaleuca family culture—and they’re a whole lot of fun.
Every summer, for example, Melaleuca holds its family picnic, where Team Members and their families are treated to games, prizes, helicopter rides, and all the delicious food and treats they can eat. And in December, Team Members and their spouses enjoy an evening of entertainment—and more prizes—at Melaleuca’s annual Christmas party.
