Thank you for taking the time to leave this very detailed feedback. We will do our best to address your concerns here, and we will use this feedback to improve our office for all of our employees.
We do not require our employees to have expertise in photography, with the exception of some of our delivery teams. We do have a new-hire training to teach all of our employees the basics of photography and the technology so that they have some working knowledge.
When it comes to off-boarding employees who are leaving, we do our best to make it as positive an experience as possible for both the employee leaving and the rest of the office. Sometimes things happen quickly, and we don’t have the time we’d like to make a smooth transition. We are currently working to streamline both our on-boarding and off-boarding processes and are hopeful this will improve transitions.
Our New York office is fairly new, so we have had the Office Manager and Talent Team handle some aspects of HR, such as on-boarding, but for their main roles, it is important for them to build relationships in the office. However we are currently working on a few key hires to help us strengthen our HR processes.
We have a company-sponsored Happy Hour every other week after our office all-hands meetings where we do have employees playing games such as beer pong. These events are always after company hours and completely optional. We do this to give employees a chance to unwind and spend time getting to know each other. It is meant to be inclusive and fun, and we are sorry that you feel it isn’t. This is something we will work on improving.
We hope that, as a current employee, you will start to see some of the above changes which will contribute to an overall better experience for you. If you do choose to leave Meero, we wish you the best of luck in the next chapter of your career. Regardless, we appreciate you taking the time to provide your valuable feedback.
