A nice young and dynamic company to work for

Pros

I joined Medifast about two years ago and I am very happy about it. Medifast is a young, dynamic company where the working environment has attained a good balance between institutional and family business cultures; this naturally motivates me to do my best. Our leadership recognizes the importance of talent and professional development and provides us several options for training and development. I like the fact that given the state of development of the company there are many opportunities for employees to make significant contributions to the overall business performance regardless of their position in the organization chart. Here you are quickly known by everybody and you call them and are called by your first name.

Cons

One general challenge is the ability to adapt to the relatively fast change that the company experiences as with business is growth.

Pros

Employer provides a plethora of information regarding physical health, nutrition, and personal finances and the support of each. Offers lots of employee team building activities and has a very friendly family like atmosphere.

Cons

employee pay rates are on the lower end of the median for hourly and salaried employees. Cost of living increases would be nice. The company could do a better job of internal employment promotions through internal training of key employees to the next level position through training, coaching, and mentoring. This is a great morale booster and often times proves to be more economical than hiring externally.

From Day 1...I knew Medifast was the right company for me!

Pros

From Day 1 I knew Medifast was the right company for me! For as long as I can remember fitness, good health, and well being have been my foundation. So, it felt very rewarding to join an organization that had not only created a vision to get America Healthy, but was fully committed to that vision. Of the four channels here at Medifast I have had the opportunity to work within each one and gain insight and perspective into the values that the founder Michael McDonald instilled and are still evident today. Medifast is rooted in 'Good' people, doing 'Great' things! No matter how much the world at large changes, the people here at Medifast have always been the driving force propelling the company toward change and success. people

Cons

I would like to see more external training opportunities offered. I feel the networking possibilities would be very beneficial building on the talent that we have here at Medifast, In my experience forging external partnerships can be essential to building on best practices and front-end customer strategies.
