Does the product or service they provide have anything to do with religion? Are there business practices discriminatory based on religion? If so, why? How do they discriminate? Are there any examples you found in your research where this company’s religious affiliation caused a problem either within the company or with customers? Did they break any laws? What’s your opinion? Is the company discriminating based on religion or are they practicing freedom of expression? Be sure to support your answers with authoritative references and use APA for references and in-text citations. Mary Kay Cosmetics employees have accused the company of creating a “cult‐like environment.” In 1997, the company’s owner Mary Kay Ash claims the company is successful because she took God as a partner.
