Pros

The people here are what makes the company great to work for. It feels that everyone has a say in everything. If you don't like a part of a process, work with your teammates to update the process. I have felt empowered to make changes in the status quo. Mechdyne give tons of opportunities to learn about VR and AV hardware and software. They encourage you to go out and get training and certifications to ensure that the end product delivered to clients is the best it can be.

Cons

Mechdyne is trying to grow, and compete globally. In order to achieve this, it really needs to hold on to the talented people who have invested years in the company. Have raises based on certifications they receive. Sure, a brand-new employee with no experience should probably be under-paid. But as they earn some upper-level certifications, they should be paid the national average. Too many people have left here to work elsewhere because they get paid what they deserve. Also, there is a large amount of favoritism. Processes are in place, and should be followed. There seems to a lot of "oh, it's ok if they skip that step, they've been doing that for years".

Thank you for your review of Mechdyne on Glassdoor. We are sorry to hear about these frustrations. There are some mischaracterizations in your post we would like to address: - Compensation is in line with the market and commensurate to a person’s experience in their respective role, which is a necessity for us to be competitive in today’s business climate. Also, local cost of living must be taken into account when determining compensation and is dependent upon where our teammates are located. National averages are not useful in this context. We distribute profit sharing to our eligible teammates two times throughout the year. The profit sharing amounts are not included in base salaries, which can lead teammates to believe they are under-paid. However, this is simply not the case. Base salary is not the only compensation to take into account when calculating earnings. - We do have many processes in place which help to keep our work consistent as we operate on a global scale. We continually search for new techniques and ways to improve our processes, which includes both the elimination and addition of required steps. We endorse process in a positive light at Mechdyne and believe that a mutual understanding of the way we function makes our teams stronger. If you would like to talk more about any issues related to your personal situation, please feel free to reach out to us at feedback@mechdyne.com

Pros

I value the culture and people who work for Mechdyne. I value my future with Mechdyne as well - I see a lot of room for personal growth and new experience and I feel like I have a lot of control over my future here. It seems a lot better here than the companies and positions of my peers.

Cons

There aren't many aspects that Mechdyne could improve - the most improvement could be seen with flexibility with in where the employees can live and the ability to work from home.
