Merritt Group Reviews

The account management and lower positions try to micro manage and aren't welcoming at all. Merritt likes to pride itself on being a great place to work by giving you a day to work from home, but there's no 401K match and the office is small and close quarters. They lack several things that make professionals want to go to larger firms, including lack of onboarding, forced to be polite all the time, employees talking behind your back and excluding you, too much concern placed on a small media hits instead of going after big opportunities. There are too many meetings and not enough time to do actual work (if there is any work, sometimes there's nothing to do and you get yelled at for not being billable). They promise you a lot in the beginning that never comes to fruitition and don't take the effort to get to know you.

If they don't like you they will get rid of you faster than you can blink with no warning. This makes Merritt Group a toxic work environment. From the day you start you will be paranoid about them getting rid of you. Do yourself a favor and don't accept an offer to work here. There are other much better places to work in the NOVA area.
