Pros

Good culture, awesome COVID response and resources for employees

Cons

Mercury continues to be in a growth stage, new organizational structure, unexpected RIFs firing high level and high quality employees with more than 15 years with the company give unsettling vibes and moral. Becoming more manager stovepipe heavy as growth continues. Little opportunities for upward movement unless pursuing management roles. Promotions were frozen, silly below industry raises, and 50% of expected and deserved bonus. A real slap in the face after many 60-hour weeks.

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!
