Meridian Bioscience reviews

This place smells hugely of old-school management philosophy where motivation comes through fear of keeping your job. There is a constant and unrelenting need to keep up with saying the right thing always whether it's true or not. Insincere compliments and excitement are expected to posted on yammer. The primary product was late to market and has little chance of catching up. Sales and marketing are a revolving door where the best get let go or leave. It's a mess.

There is a massive disconnect between upper management and middle management. Upper management appears to want an environment of integrity, but when the message comes from middle management it is more about do what ever it takes to get the job done, regardless of health, saftey, or legal stipulations. The company has opporated for aproximatly 35 years the health and safety officer position was created in 2009, he does not get full coporation from middle managers that are adverse to change and his support from uppermanagement does not always line up with the new culture of saftey they are trying to create. Because of the companies size there is limited room for growth, no corporate mentoring system to help with career development. Lower level employees work is used to is sited as the reason for the promotion of managers. Promotions have been offered and then withdrawn. Employees are afraid of HR, conversations that are suposed to be confidentail, are not always kept confidential.
