Pros

The people were nice, but this is a terrible place to work due to money problem and the management is disfunctional.

Cons

Disfunctional management. Revolving door of employees. People are fired for insignificant reasons. Hostile work environment due to owner. Verbally abuse from owner and CEO. No regular reviews. Pay cuts every year. Facility is bad shape. Owner expect you to do 2 or 3 jobs, some of which you are not even trained to do, then when the outcome is not positive you get all the blame. No director of operation (plant manager) for two years.

MEECO Response
7y
As I am close to a decade behind on a response to this review, I have to say that it is quite painful to see how unhappy the reviewer was at our business. Coming out of the Great Recession was a challenging time for us, and we sacrificed together to keep our company alive. Today, MEECO is a vibrant, stable business, with a much-improved physical plant, a capable production manager, investment in cross-training and advanced training in tools, like Salesforce; and very little turnover. To the extent that I, as CEO, in any way did or said anything that was hurtful or abusive, I wish to humbly apologize to this reviewer and make amends in every way possible. Having worked for some "crazy" bosses myself when I was young, I know how awful and demoralizing that can be. Please know that I focus every day and in all that I do to be respectful and a good role model. With sincere apologies, Lisa PS: I only just got on GD two weeks ago, which is why I did not respond sooner!

The company is very flexible when it comes to schedule and will work around employees’ strengths. They uphold the well-being of employees above all and will adjust to where we are most productive. Compensation and benefits are above industry level.

Cons

You must have some scientific background to appreciate our products. Other than that, no cons to mention.
