Communication of Meddys Culture
If you can commit to and live with these principles, then you're the type of person who will be successful and help our company thrive. If you feel this level of accountability is not right for you, that you're not willing or able to engage with us at this level and take the steps necessary to do what you say you are going to do and be accountable for your actions…. In other words, live "Above the Line," then we are not a good fit.

• Accountability: See It, Own It, Solve It, Do It
• Become part of the solution.
• Respect for others and their feelings
• Act now!
• Ask the question: "What else can I do?"
• Ask the question: "What coaching do you have for me? ... What can I do better?
• Personal ownership
• Reject average
• Show others that you care (This is the most important one)

Our business culture is defined by three simple rules:
