Why Join M9
Working at M9
M9’s success is directly related to a sustained focus on our culture.
Positive change and growth has afforded employees the ability not only to grow their own professional careers, but to assist others to do the same. We’ve done it while managing to have a lot of fun along the way.
M9 is committed to the belief that every voice matters. All decisions are discussed, validated, and agreed upon in a round-table style. Ideas are gathered through weekly polls, surveys, video calls, quarterly meetings, and votes. We ask the questions, welcome the suggestions, LISTEN, and ACT.
M9 gives our employees a platform to be heard because we firmly believe in the talent of the people we hire, and the knowledge that the “best idea wins” creates a positive working environment where everyone feels motivated to bring their best ideas forward.
We look for new team members who enjoy working hard, come from diverse backgrounds, display a forward-thinking mindset, and appreciate that while they may not have the winning opinion every time, they will be heard.
“M9 believes that great culture begins with our commitment to the belief that every voice matters, belief in the talent and expertise of the people we hire, and the knowledge that the “best idea wins”. This creates a positive working environment and also creates a healthy striving culture where everyone feels motivated to bring their best ideas forward.”
– Ethel Formichelli, Chief Operating Officer

Employee Recognition
At M9, we notice and appreciate the efforts, accomplishments, and contributions of our employees through a robust awards program that reflects the values, missions, and goals of our company.
Ongoing Awards:
Positive Impact Award (PIA). The PIA is M9’s spot award program. Any employee can identify, nominate, and recognize their peers at any time throughout the year. The employee contribution must be for an action or accomplishment that is beyond the scope of the employee’s regular day-to-day activities and assignments and ties to one or more of M9’s corporate core values.
Quarterly Awards:
Top Performer. The Top Performer award recognizes the accomplishments of our employees with a focus on work ethic, goal achievement, and total contribution to enable company growth. One individual each quarter is eligible to receive the award.
Person of the Quarter. The Person of the Quarter award recognizes one billable and one corporate employee for their overall contribution to M9. To be eligible for award, employees nominated must demonstrate how they embody the nine M9 Core Values in their daily lives. All employees are eligible for this award one time per year.
Annual Awards:
Volunteer of the Year. The Volunteer of the Year Award recognizes an employee who has gone above and beyond to volunteer their time and talent to make a positive impact on their community at large. For the purposes of this award, volunteering is defined as significant unpaid hours; contributed talents, energy and skills to help non-profit organizations in the community; and demonstration of exceptional commitment, service, creativity, cooperation, and leadership.
Rising Star of the Year. The Rising Star of the Year award recognizes an employee who has recently joined M9 and is on their way to becoming a star performer. All corporate individuals who are in their first year of employment with M9 and who have shown outstanding performance in their current position are eligible for the award.
M9 President’s Club. President’s Club is M9’s ultimate sales achievement award—a lavish trip ($5,000 value) reserved for those individuals who achieve their predetermined goals during the fiscal year.
