Pros

Most people who worked here were really good people, dress was casual even before Covid and we worked hard but did laugh a lot. But it all changed this year when the leadership changed. Most of us didn’t even realize it was happening until everything changed.

Cons

I get that the new people care about profit. It’s normal & I guess we weren’t very profitable before. But we used to care a lot more about people, & now we don’t. So many of my work friends were let go & most were here much longer than me. And how are they supposed to find a new job during Covid? And they didn’t even give them time or money or insurance until they figured it out. Why would anyone want to work for bosses like that? I’m sure they’ll sell the company & get rid of all of us & not care. I’m going to stay here for now but leave as soon as I can find a new job. I’m sure they won’t care anyway.

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.
