MEC used to be a pleasure to work for, who treated their staff wonderfully - the change for the worse is frightening. - Anonymous employee Wavemaker Employee Review

Pros

The potential for the company is huge, but there is no point having a great business model if the staff are treated appallingly as they will not stay on long enough to add long term value to the business

Cons

Massive clique amongst senior management. Many examples of people being forced out if their face doesn't fit. No understanding of people's personal and professional situations during the recent merger. The famous 'MEC-ness' is a thing of the past. Working hours are totally ridiculous. Work life balance is non existent in certain roles.
