Pros

The commute and some staff members

Cons

Over worked employees with no clear company future. If job market improves, company will lose most of current staff. Management is more concerned with hitting revenue targets than satisfying customer requirements.

Pros

Great co-workers..... The people that have been at Mercury through thick and thin are wonderful. There's a constant vision of the worker bees of 'how to get this done with what we have'.

Cons

Constant restructuring and the sense of never getting caught up. It seems like it is harder and harder to get something accomplished from start to finish. There's always an internal roadblock. Unfortunately upper management is completely out of touch.

Pros

They pay well, have decent benefits. Great co-workers.

Cons

Scare of a layoff every quarter. Re-org every year that makes you wonder if they have a clue. no raises in over 5 years with excuse of the economy but they keep buying companies and have over $20 million in bank. Bonuses are a joke unless you are management. VP's get $200000 plus while regular employees get less than a 1% a qtr. Difficult to move up.
