Meridian Bioscience reviews

Anyone who rated this company higher than a 2 was/is part of the good ol’ boys or good ol’ girls club, brought in as little minions of the new CEO. You’ll see people say all the tenured employees were stuck in the “that’s the way it’s always been” mentality. When in actuality people were just use to working for a company that appreciated their employees and paid/promoted them fairly. With a company this size, I think it speaks volumes when one finance/accting employee quits and 5 more follow. Especially when the whole dept only consisted of 16 ppl to begin with. I worked there for 6 years and I think the last straw for me was being offered a promotion/raise and then the raise being taken away 2 days later because apparently through word of mouth, the CEO had to set an example. The turn over rate at this company is high and for good reason ($). Do your due diligence before even contemplating working for this company.

I worked here for 11 years. I started as an intern and worked my way up to Manager and it was a great place to work for 10/11 years. I planned on retiring from here but when the company got a new CEO, the company culture completely shifted. He took away the monetary anniversary awards, the occasional fun office party/get togethers for holidays and expected employees to work over 40 hours a week. It seems like his plan was to get the people who had been at the company for a long time out so he could hire new people for less money and expect them to do the work of 2 people. As people quit, they wouldn't be replaced and therefore the pressure to do more work increased. It became too much and I no longer felt valued even though I was working evenings and some weekends to try to keep up with all the work. The work life balance and family atmosphere I loved was gone and so I decided to look elsewhere.
