Pros

Great people. Overall, great place for client interaction, project work and building a personal brand. Interaction with folks at a senior level throughout the payments industry. High degree of independence (both good and bad -- see Cons). Another positive is a conservative growth approach.

Cons

No real training. Everybody is often working independently and not getting the best leverage from everything that is produced. Demands of consulting vs. research work is challenging to balance. The company is growing on a resource constrained model that is frustrating as the payments industry continues to expand.

Pros

Great company. Excellent people. Amazed to see only disgruntled former employees with negative posts. Not bad to have only 3 of these after 14 years. And funny that they are inaccurate about corporate performance and likely from employees that were dismissed for non-performance (a couple after a full year of non-performance).

Cons

A lot of work. Consulting/research balance is always a challenge. Resource constrained which equates to managed to profitability. This can appear as “small mindedness”.

Pros

some of the professional staff at Mercator is tremendously hard-working, insightful and true industry thought leaders

Cons

management is both controlling and driven by small mindedness and pettiness. Makes for an uncomfortable mix of talented people hamstrung by lack of leadership.
