MDA Response
3yThanks for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We want to quickly address and correct a few misperceptions:
• Regarding salaries, MDA regularly reviews market data and adjusts salaries to remain competitive. We also have our annual review and a merit increase process to continuously recognize and reward employees as they grow in their career with us.
• Regarding remote work, like most companies, MDA has adopted a hybrid work model that gives many employees the flexibility to continue to work remotely a two days a week and work in the office three days per week to collaborate and engage with coworkers.
• Regarding the new payroll system, this was launched recently to standardize the pay cycles for all employees. The change did not affect the amount employees were paid – it simply changed the timing for when some employees were paid. All employees are paid for all hours worked each 2-week pay period and paid the following week. This is a standard best-practice pay schedule. We also provided several months notice and multiple reminders to help employees prepare for the transition as we aligned the pay cycles. We also offered a voluntary pay advance option if it was needed for the one-time one week transition period.
We value employee feedback. We encourage you – and any employee that has a concern, to reach out to your Human Resources Business Partner to better understand MDA policies and discuss ways to make your employment more fulfilling.
