      Beware of USMO - Bad Management

      Planner
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Pays well but a LOT of hours to earn it

      Cons

      USMO Planning has a very high turnover. For a reason. While working here I was constantly putting in 11-12 hour days + time on the weekend. It was not enough. Management would listen to concerns about workload sympathetically but nothing ever changed. Whenever something comes up that you were not able to get to you get the speech about how critical the TPP report was and and must be done on time all the time. All this at the end of a 60 hour week. In a department with 4 employees, non had been there more that a two years. It's just not sustainable. After a year of hearing how things are going to change (but don't) people just burn out, leave, or are fired. You will hear excuses about how it was their fault but who hired them? How can every employee be bad?

      What a company!

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Leaders are personal yet professional and truly care about their employees. Throughout the pandemic, there has been an enormous amount of concern and safety check ins to employees both on site and working remotely. The center of their strategy and decision making is humanity. A true testament to a company worth giving your time to.

      Cons

      Mercury is growing so swiftly that it can be difficult to navigate processes that the business is outgrowing so quickly. We are a company that is built for the strong, the innovative and the passion for making a difference both internally and externally.

      Proud to Work at Mercury

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Hard-working, pro-active, caring and brilliant executive management. Cultures and values support collaboration, technology re-use, idea cross pollination all of which lead to industry-leading organic growth. Mercury encourages independent thinking which sometimes leads to conflict but in a healthy manner with high respect resulting in full idea evolution. My team mates and I all have place high expectations on ourselves and on each other and are willing to back each other up. It is refreshing to work with high-caliber, bright, hardworking and innovative colleagues. Best in class for managing the pandemic. Lastly, I am proud to be a member of the team that works to make the world a safer place

      Cons

      The tasks at times can be very challenging both from a schedule perspective and technical feasibility. Sometimes my work/life balance gets out of whack
