Pros

Not many. .If , you want to work long hours and not be appreciated or treated horribly. . Then Mercury will be for you. Company sent us all surveys 2 years in a row. Scores where some of the worst in the industry . Management has dog a ponny shows about how they care about employees and their families. All lies. . Business as usual. Until Mercury starts with new management. Amazing talent will continue to leave. Company announces million dollar contacts weekly.. Yet.. No Christmas bonus or formal party. Horrible raises. On. And on..

Cons

So many cons. . Management with no management skills. Supervisors who can't read nor right in English. Work weekends and holidays with no recognition nor rewards. . Disrespected daily. Hostile work environment. No work.. life balance. . Don't plan on seeing your family if you work here. .

Mercury Systems Response

At Mercury, our goal is to create the best possible environment for our talent community. We are grateful for all of our employees and strive to make their experience here rewarding and fulfilling. To that end, the Mercury you describe in your review is not the one I know, at any of our sites, Phoenix included. The results of our recent culture survey support the notion that while we are not without opportunities to improve, we are well above the industry averages in the areas of employee engagement, contentment, professional development to name a few. Specifically, the Phoenix site rated above the overall Mercury average in 8/10 categories. The leadership team has worked to create an environment in which employees are empowered to define their own work-life integration, balancing it with the understanding that we are a results-driven, high-performance organization. I am concerned about your feedback and take it very seriously however, I need more information and detail in order to dig in and make changes where necessary to ensure my perception of our culture in Phoenix is true for all employees there (and beyond). I would like you to reach out to me personally to discuss the issues you referenced in detail so that together we can get to the bottom of them and further, address and correct them. I can be reached in the following ways: phone, (669) 226-5815, email, charles.leader@mrcy.com, or face-to-face. Please contact me promptly. I am eager to learn what I may be missing and act quickly to resolve anything that is amiss. Sincerely, Charlie Leader, SVP & GM, Advanced Microelectronics Solutions

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!
