Pros

The people at Mercury are great - in my time there I really enjoyed it. It's an interesting company with some really smart people who do really great things. If you have a good team, it makes it a lot easier. They have solid benefits, just adopted a 9/80 with unlimited PTO and are looking to continue to grow

Cons

They grew too fast without stabilizing the foundations of the company, resulting in shortfalls across the business. The back-log of issues grew and the company suffered because it couldn't keep up. Over time, some really great talent has left or been cut, making some of the gaps even more apparent, making it even harder to push forward to do day-to-day business.

Pros

Great time off, schedule flexibility like 9/80, company shut down at end of year, caring coworkers, lots of resources, benefit add ons are great like pet insurance! They have a student loan company match program and tuition reimbursement. They seem to promote from within a lot too which is refreshing.

Cons

Spread out amongst lots of states East coast and West coast. Sometimes can make collaborating hard but the make it work well!
