Our culture empowers each professional to pursue new business opportunities and explore new or innovative ways to serve our clients. Innovative ideas are encouraged as we develop our corporate strategic plan, design business processes, and pursue business development opportunities.  We encourage professional growth in areas that improve client service. We support staff in their efforts to learn and grow so that they can keep Merjent at the forefront of our industry.

We expect personal integrity, honesty, and ethical behavior from all our employees. Period.

We pride ourselves on attention to detail and the quality of our professional services and deliverables. Our team members maintain certifications and training, stay current with best practices, and keep informed and up-to-date on changes in regulations. Merjent’s internal quality program ensures that the documents we prepare are clear, accurate, and consistent. All aspects of a project or service, from staffing to cost controls and schedule, are carefully considered, tracked, and managed.

We have also implemented many supportive and innovative measures to promote employee health, wellness, and wellbeing. From ergonomic “standing” and “walking” work stations to a healthy snacks program and telecommuting options, we have been recognized for our efforts through multiple workplace effectiveness and flexibility awards, including the Alfred P. Sloan Award, When Work Works Award, and the Star Tribune’s 150 Top Workplaces award.

Safety is a big part of Merjent culture—we truly care about the welfare of our colleagues, sub-consultants, clients, communities, and the environment. Our internal safety program meets or exceeds the highest industry standards and we are very proud to have been selected by Environmental Health & Safety Today magazine as one of “America’s Safest Companies.”

We operate in ways that create employee value and lead to the development of long-term clients. Our founders established a business model that has carried us through market fluctuations, regulatory changes, and constantly evolving industries. They continue to seek sustainable outcomes and work to ensure stability and long-term viability for our company. Our strategies always consider ways to foster corporate culture, benefit our local communities, and reduce our corporate impact on the natural environment.

Part of Merjent’s mission is to promote an environment where people and projects succeed. Teamwork is a core component to achieving this. We care about employee wellbeing, and management is proactive in promoting safety, providing workplace flexibility, and supporting programs and events that enable healthy lifestyle choices. We treat each other fairly and kindly, we encourage contributions and ideas from all staff, and we acknowledge hard work and strive to ensure a work-life balance.
