Mercuria Energy Reviews

No raises so try to negotiate as much salary as possible up front without the expectation it will increase more in the next couple years. Do not count on a bonus either unless you are in the front office. During my time at Mercuria I saw many people laid off without a clear indication as to why, and some of those were with the company a year or less. Also, it is almost unheard of for people to move around departments so expect to spend 3 or so years in the role you initially accept. As for work-life balance, this really depends on which department you are in, but don't count on it. Many people work weekends and late nights. Even after working 80+ hour work weeks, and being a high contributor to your department, do not expect to be compensated for that performance in the form of a bonus.

- Old fashioned "trader jerk" mentality and cut throat environment, bullying. - No salary increases unless you resign and get a counter offer. - Extremely high attrition/mercenary culture. - Long hours, manual tedious processes, poor leadership. - Head of HR resigned in 2019 as well as HR Business partners in London, Geneva and US. Replaced with inexperienced admins. - No training and development, lack of diversity.
