Pros

Mercury is a growing company with lots of new opportunities to grow your skill set or expand into other areas. Employees are helpful, great and committed to Mercury's success.

Cons

Since I started at Mercury they seem to have annual large lay offs. Those at the top don't know anything about day to day of the employees. Too much middle management that doesn't do anything other than get in the way of what people who actually produce are doing. Raises are small, don't cover cost of living, or even the rise in health care cost each year. Profit share stinks, while people at the top make so much more, go on extravagant dinners and get golf memberships as business expenses.

Pros

Great time off, schedule flexibility like 9/80, company shut down at end of year, caring coworkers, lots of resources, benefit add ons are great like pet insurance! They have a student loan company match program and tuition reimbursement. They seem to promote from within a lot too which is refreshing.

Cons

Spread out amongst lots of states East coast and West coast. Sometimes can make collaborating hard but the make it work well!
