Pros

Customer requirements that demand cutting edge technology require researching and working with the latest the industry has to offer. The technology and complexity of the systems, assemblies and software developed at MDS make for a challenging and rewarding engineering environment.

Cons

With the many divisions of Mercury across the country and so much talent, working for a common goal or project can be difficult to cultivate into success.

First, I’d like to thank you for providing your feedback. Hearing from our employees is critical to helping us improve as we implement changes across Mercury. I realize we have introduced a significant number of changes across our systems, infrastructure and security model in the past eighteen months. Each of these were done to help Mercury become a more scalable and secure company. Driving this much change across an enterprise as large as Mercury is complicated and clearly at times we could have done a better job of proactive communication and training. Our goal is to make Mercury a stronger, safer company. Your feedback makes it clear we have room to improve and you have my commitment we will make every effort to do so. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. If you would like to share more detailed information with me directly, please feel free to contact me directly. Regards, Jamie Ryan Mercury CIO

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!
