Pros

They hire good people and the dress code is very relaxed. They have a terrific product line.

Cons

In the years that I was there, the company experienced double digit growth every year. Instead of rewarding the employees who worked so hard for that success with raises, they chose to buy up several smaller companies to continue growing their product line and hired overpriced executives who didn't stay with the company. Their management style is very top down and they don't seem to respect their employees.

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.
