Pros

Pay is a little higher, you will likely get a bump in your current job title which is just a recruiting tactic because they can't get employees. Word is out on the street and everyone is catching on that any job here is short lived. Yes they have some long term employees but they only keep them for their legacy knowledge otehrwise they would have enbe gone by now as well.

Cons

After you are drawn in by the offer of an inflated job title you wouldn't see elsewhere and higher pay. You will also get a % of salary company performance bonus, but they don't pay it because they cant perform. Customers are terminating contracts for non performance frequently. They will then suplement bonus nonpayment with employee stock awards that will never vest because you will likely be laid off before they do. I have seen 4 lay-off's in 3 years and I am on my 5th manager. Research it, that is fact.

Pros

None, Mercury is losing tons of market share and laying off hundreds of employees.

Cons

Everything. Mercury has all the problems of a small and big company at the same time. They do not value their employees.
