I have been impressed with meridianlink since I first started working here but their behavior during this pandemic is what made me decide to write this review. They things that they are doing for us are so much better than my wife’s company or any of my friend’s companies are doing for them and I am very happy with how they are handling everything. Before all this happened, they were working hard to get us better tools and equipment (like decent laptops) to do our jobs. Our new CEO is very interested in hearing what we have to say, and he responds to us and is very good at sharing information about how we are doing and why we are doing things. Since corona came, they really have impressed me so much more. We got daily emails from the head of hr that gave us good information about the virus and what the company was doing, and it brought so much peace of mind to me and my family. The people in hr actually care about the employees and you can see that they do things to help us. They do those emails once a week now and even though there is not much virus information, they still give us good info about other things that I did not know about and I appreciate their effort to include fun and things for kids in these. We also have company meetings every few weeks and our CEO and other speakers are very clear and transparent about what is happening and what decisions they are making. We had company meetings before but not as often and I am glad it is more frequent now with everyone being at home. In our most recent one Nicolaas responded to all of the questions that came in honestly and my respect when through the roof. Most CEOs would not have taken real questions on a call like that and he got some aggressive ones which he answered with real grace. I really admire and trust Nicolaas because he tells us what is going on and I am very comfortable with the decisions he and his team make for the company. I am very happy with how they are handling this, and I have confidence that our future is going to be good.
Svantaggi
There are some bitter and immature people who work here. I think those people are not used to working very hard and have never been held to the fire to get things done and they are tough to work around. They complain too much about things not being how they were before which was mostly playing video games and not much work. I feel bad for my manager because he has some of those people on our team and all they ever do is complain behind his back and get mad about everything. There aren’t nearly as many of these people as before, but you notice them. They also just paused the matching on the retirement plan but they said that is only temporary.
