      Pros

      I've been with Mercury for longer than I wish to admit, having joined the company during one of the previous tech booms. I joined for the team, the technology, and the mission, and I would join up again today for the same set of reasons. The work environment has remained dynamic, terribly challenging since day 1, and I love the camaraderie which is the heart and sole of why I think customers want to do business with Mercury. I've had the pleasure of going to a handful of customer locations where they have shown us what Mercury, its technology, engineering prowess, and product capabilities are doing for their customers. The new facilities and collaboration tooling is fun to use.

      Cons

      I've seen through my friends in other industries the level of engineering agility that they are using as a weapon to pursue growth and customers. I'm struggling a bit with how to adopt and use some of those practices at Mercury.

      We appreciate your feedback and thorough review. Also, thank you for your many years of dedicated service! We love hearing from employees like you. If there are specific technologies or applications that your friends in other industries are using, we would love to hear more about them and we are sure your manager would too. In the past year, most if not all Mercury locations established new engagement teams. The teams are always looking for new members and we welcome you to join at any time. Recently, Mark Aslett met with the leads of engagement teams to review engagement activities and plans to help us better align with the needs of employees in each site. Lifelong learning has continued to be of utmost importance and the talent team has been working to bring more tangible training opportunities to employees. Thanks again so much for this review and all you do for the company and your colleagues!
