Pros

We used to have a lot of issues of secrecy, lack of communication, strong beliefs that the way we’d always done things was the only way to do it, and no one was allowed to make decisions which slowed us down and was demotivating. The new CEO has introduced a totally new culture where we actually have transparency to our direction and how our business is doing - and our leaders are now trusting us to own and drive the change. It’s really energizing to be a part of a company in a moment where we are defining for ourselves the course we should be on.

Cons

Health insurance isn’t very good - sounds like the intention is to improve it, which will be a welcome change.

Pros

Since joining the company, I’ve seen continuous growth and meaningful change for the better. M&D fosters one of the most welcoming and friendly work environments I’ve experienced. It’s a place you can truly be proud to work, not just because of their commitment to delivering quality products, but also because of the genuine care they show for their people.

Cons

The company is in a phase of transformation and integration which comes with its pain points.

Pros

Salary only without stress of commissions.

Cons

Limited opportunities for growth. Leadership hiring is always from the outside.
