Meador Staffing Services

I was an internal Meador employee.

Management in Houston was a joke.

Nepotism everywhere--all of the owner's kids have "VP" or "Director" in their job title somewhere--including the recent graduate whose sole job was to send out recipes and health emails. Constant emails from senior leadership about how liberals are evil and how liberalism is a mental disorder. Enjoy super long prayer at team meetings? This is the place for you.

One member of senior leadership is quite obviously abusing alcohol. The organization internally is quite xenophobic, likely only slipping under the EEOC radar because of the fact that they employ a large percentage of women, and because they can report the temporary employees they place in their count. A person was deemed "not a fit" if they were obviously not a Christian. I saw great people get quite obviously shunned because leadership didn't agree with their lifestyles or circumstances.

Absolutely zero room for growth, especially if you didn't attend church regularly and play the game with senior leadership. Pay was waaaaay below market, even with experience. You were expected to be on-call always...not going to happen at such low pay. Hikes in our insurance premium were blamed on "Obamacare".

Mistakes made by accounting when calculating insurance premium contributions were somehow then held to the employee's responsibility to pay back. One member of senior leadership raised her voice with me and spoke to me in an extremely disrespectful manner because there was a stain on the carpet. As I am not a janitor or the building maintenance manager, I was not aware that I was personally responsible for carpet stains. At that point, I was done.

I have a great HR background and have had a great job since leaving Meador. No one deserves to be treated like dirt wiped off the bottom of a shoe, and that's exactly what Meador leadership will do if you're not a WASP.
