Pros

Mercury has decent benefits package. most of the jobs are monday to friday 8 to 5 jobs. You can also get earlier shifts. Friendly employees.

Cons

Most of the employees feel overworked without overtime. A lot of people work during breaks to keep up due to high production numbers required. If not reached, you are given verbals. Policies and procedures are not applied to everyone, some departments have managers who are in other cities and they rarely comeover to talk with satelite units and when they do they socialize amongst themselves. Higher management sets goals without even realizing that its not easy, even managers and supervisors realize that some of these goals are unrealistic.

Pros

Decent Pay, Christmas Bonus, Underwriting bonus Nice people at the worker-bee level

Cons

They don't give you the right tools to do your job (ie. Pentium 4HT's are still prevalent in the company as of 2011) Running websphere overpowers the computer. New computers are newer dual core Pentiums. Too cheap company to help emps. Unwilling to advance technology to ease our job (still using JAX-RPC instead of JAX-WS, using Java 1.4 instead of Java 5 or 6) If you have a good idea, you are working too much (even into your personal time) to implement it. Working 50 up to 80 hours a week and its expected. They say 'Open environment' but its anything but open.
