Pros

It's a paycheck, nothing more, no one there cares about the employees or the clients.

Cons

Upper management is clueless, they are not from the weight management industry and don't understand it. They threaten, intimidate and mistreat employees. There is such as "desperate" desire for success they swing through the air grabbing at anything that they believe will make them money. They have no direction, no communication and NO accountability coming out of Owings Mills, it's all about who your buddies and family are. There is zero integrity, no respect and no appreciation at all. Worst place I've ever working in my life.

It’s always difficult to hear things like this, and we hope that, while you were at Medifast, you brought any concerns that you had to your manager and HR.

Pros

As a Manager there was some formal training. I learned a lot about the Weight Loss business which I was new in and worked with some good people.

Cons

There are too many promises of growth professionally and financially which became very clear were never going to be realized. The expectations from each level is far far off balance from reality that make the financial promises even more absurd!
