Review from Operations Dept

No body in the team listens or like ask about how people are.. they are always focused on work

Review from Engineering Dept

change leadership team and managers

Review from Sales Dept

There is different lifestyle across globe, please consider how the percentage and cutting amount will make issue to individual

Review from Operations Dept

There's a lack of recognition for teams that do the heavy lifting to retain clients and limited growth opportunities due to budget constraints. Improvement starts with fair compensation and fostering respect, especially for those from the acquisiton

Review from Customer Success Dept

management, management , management management

Review from Customer Success Dept

The direction of the company is 100% focused on new sales and the value we bring to customers is moving to the side and forgotten at times. Satisfaction drives sales, so high quotas that are unattainable (majority of Account Managers did not hit quota in ANY quarter) drive resentment.

Review from Customer Success Dept

Culture of micromanagement makes it very unenjoyable to be at work. Managers/executives also pressure us to make decisions that directly harm our customers.

Review from Customer Success Dept

More attention needs to be paid to the Services department - our feedback should be listened to regarding salaries, benefits, company direction and more respect and collaborative spirit should be shown from the sales/CS sides. We are often pressured to fit with deadlines set by them.

Review from Product Dept

Compensation Better Communication on the outlook Include Team in change, not just top-bottom

Review from Operations Dept

Invest in your employees, promote diversity and actually work to diversity your leadership, research what the workforce actually wants in a company these days. Meltwater is so out of touch with the current workforce and what we want.

Review from Customer Success Dept

Work is not as important as life outside of work.

Review from Engineering Dept

Overwork that is not being paid (illegal in this country), promotion not much effective to the salary, thus job responsibilities expanding

Review from Customer Success Dept

Teams deliver excellent results for our customers, and see none of the benefits. I genuinely believe our leadership does not care that employees are suffering and resentful as long as they make money for private equity

Review from Customer Success Dept

The GPS cycle was perceived by many as inadequate and lacking fairness. It's crucial for future performance evaluation processes to be transparent, equitable, and inclusive, ensuring that all employees have a fair opportunity to demonstrate their contributions and growth

Review from Customer Success Dept

Not feeling challenged and stuck in the same old task oriented routine. Been doing this for so long in my field and had other expectations coming in and it doesn't seem to align yet. Hopeful that things will improve in time with the recent changes in place.

Review from HR Dept

I think programs and roles can be more structured, more trained and therefore more engaged. Feels like people are not being serious in you getting better

Review from Sales Dept

Sales and delivery services teams middle management not working in sync to protect the interests of employees. Seem to only care about clinching deals without considering whether we have the resources to meet clients' expectations.

Review from Customer Support Dept

As an employee, particularly an employee not in sales/commercial, I do not feel valued. The culture at MW is very off-putting and is the stereotypical toxic "bro" culture. The fix here would be to create a culture where team members feel safe & supported to call people out on toxic behavior.

Review from Customer Success Dept

I am typically pretty go with the flow, but the changes are not communicated and cases are constantly being taken and switched

Review from Sales Dept

What do you like best about your company?

The industry, media intelligence/monitoring, is pretty interesting and is growing its fingerprint in the tech space. It's cool to be part of a growing industry with a recognizable brand name.

Review from Marketing Dept

What would you most like to see improved at your company?

Better management training and less "training on the job" for managers and individual contributors alike. Often I am taken to task for not knowing how to do something on software that I haven't been trained on.
