Mercury in Motion, LLC


The job is easy to certain extent if you move fast and can pick up on things quickly. Bonuses are hard to get, you will mostly rely on your hourly rate. Here’s a typical day: You will show up at 10:30 get your route sheet from dispatch then you will login to your flex app (where you will see how many stops you have and area you’re in for the day) and ementor app which is a driving monitoring app that tracks everything you do from stopping, cornering, speeding, and phone manipulation. If that isn’t enough to stress you out they added an AI camera that watches you all day also tracks your driving,speed, distance from other vehicles,stopping, and failure to signal or taking a red light. After you login you will wait till your wave is called into the warehouse to load over 300+ packages with no help and here’s the catch is that you only have 15 min to load the vehicle. After that you will go to your first stop which will either be close by or very far away which in reality you won’t do your first stop till 12pm or after and if you’re lucky you will do a few before 12pm. All your apartment stops are grouped meaning you will have 2 separate apartment doors to go to for 1 stop and you might have 20 stops at that complex which in actuality will be 40 doors you will have to deliver to which usually equals out to 50-60 packages, and most of them are 3rd or 2nd floors. You will have 180-200 stops a day and on top of that your residential stops are always grouped so you will have 2-4 houses to deliver to for 1 stop. If you’re a very fast worker you can finish your route in 6 hours or less. If you are not fast you will take the whole 10h shift. When finished you will call dispatch and tell them you’re done and If you do finish early you might have to rescue which means you will end up doing over 200 stops helping someone who has less stop than you did. Dispatch isn’t really a big help and you’re basically on your own. You are required to follow all customer instructions even if they don’t make any sense and if you don’t you will get a tier infraction which will be subject to disciplinary action or termination. If a package is damaged you’re responsible for it even if you had no idea it was damaged. Lastly you will get a weekly email with your stats for the previous week for everyone to see which covers everything from your driving, packages delivered or not delivered, customer call ins, your rank in the company which will either be fantastic or poor, and a list of the bonus winners if you’re one of the lucky ones to get one from having a easy route. There is a program this company does which is called the Guaranteed Bonus Hours which is the full 10 hours paid out even if you finish early. You will only get the bonus hours if you do not call in the entire week.The only cool thing is you will have more time with your family if you move fast and the guys/ girls you work work with are pretty cool people. This job isn’t for everybody and you will get burnt out very quickly. 

When I left Rover Logistics for this DSP instead it seemed like the right move, but as the months wore on, the cracks started to show more and more. In the beginning, they'll treat you with respect, they seem like a merit-based company thats willing to put their drivers needs first and foremost. The longer you're there though, the less they care about you, as they're only interested in suckering in new people until they eventually get tired of it and quit too once they realize they've been had.
Hardest part of the job is that you'll get overworked on purpose no matter how good you are metrics-wise, they'll schedule you 5-6 days in a row when they change your weekly schedule (their "set schedule" promise upon hiring is a complete lie) with their biggest routes, and then when you get fatigued or injured because of it, they won't help you. I ended up with spine compression and shoulder issues that have been caused by doing this job for too long and expected to do it too fast, and when I went to the doctor on workers comp, they refused to pay for anything I needed (medication, physical therapy) not 30 minutes after I left the appointment. Basically, you're a warm body there to do their bidding and if you're even 1% out of that capacity, they'll find the smallest reason possible to throw you away like yesterdays garbage. Management (chief of staff, dispatchers, the GM, all of them) are jokes who wish they ran a real company instead of licking Amazon's boots. The culture of the team isn't all that bad though, all of my coworkers are great but we all can't wait to leave forever and never come back because management is more obsessed with punishing people rather than rewarding them.
Avoid like the plague. Worst job I've ever had by a country mile.

They don't value their employees and they treat you like you're just a number. No upward mobility here no raises or anything to work towards. Some days you come in to work and they send you home so you're not even getting 40hrs per week. The vans have many issues. You have to deliver entirely to many packages per day. There should be no reason that I have to run to a delivery just so that I can finish my route in a timely manner. The culture is bad and the training is subpar. The turnover rate is the highest I've seen of any job ever and it's that way for a reason. If you're planning on working here unless you don't have any other options I would definitely steer away from this company. This is not a career job at all. 19.5 is a pretty decent wage to start a delivery driver at but you're stuck with that the duration of your employment there unless you get into a bigger vehicle you get another dollar or two but with more packages as well. No overtime they reserve that for the people who run to every door to make their deliveries. Basically killing themselves for a company who doesn't care about them. You're expendable. Like I said the turnover rate is high for a reason. Google driving for Amazon reviews. Take heed. 

I was only emplyed during peak season so that's what I can speak about. The owners of the company are literally so nice and were really attentive to all the drivers even though they were expanding a lot. I always felt that if I needed help or had a problem I could talk to them. The other drivers/workers seemed nice, I didn't really talk to many people but it's obvious that once you've been there a while everyone got pretty close.

As for the work itself, I can't lie it was pretty tough sometimes. They have a good system for scheduling the days you want to work. The routes are usually not too insane. The system for deliveries could definitely be upgraded to make the route easier. It's a delivery job so at the end of the day you're going to be tired but completing a route is a great feeling.

I have worked with Mercury in motion for 1 year. This company is great to work for. You will be scheduled to work for 40 hours every week and sometimes more if the opportunity to pick up a a day comes up. There are many incentives to work here. First you get guaranteed bonus hours- so if you finished your shift in 6 hours- you get paid for a full 10 hours! How many jobs do that.. plus if you have a good week of delivering and have good statistics for the week you get $125 bonus for that week. If you want to get paid more then you can become a step van driver and get paid more hourly.
The managers are great to work for. They are always supplying us with food and drinks for the day and have raffles based on work achievements for the week/month. They always have our backs with Amazon management and want us to succeed. I plan on working with them for much longer. 

- Management here is very supportive and helpful 
- Training is fast, and you have to be a strong self starter to succeed 
- Best team I have worked with in a long time, everyone is very helpful and supports each other
- Got this job as a temp job, and understood it is temporary, due to the nature of the work influx of packages the work load and availability can change 
- Liked working 10 hour days (still get paid if you finish early) only 4 days a week 
- Upbeat active job, if you want a desk job or not to hustle this is not for you 
- Strong driving skills, and problem solving skills are needed for this job
- Overall I AM SO GREATFUL FOR THE TEAM AT MERCURY IN MOTION they gave me a job when I lost mine due to COVID 19 and for that I am very very grateful, they accepted me and taught me valuable skills I can use in my personal life.

I started mid pandemic in June. Job started great people were great and manager were decent. They don't run routes the greatest and there are favorites here. Job is easy and not hard to get the hang of quickly, very simple and pay is decent. The bad part of of working for Mercury is that when you get covid and send them the paper work to show you tested positive, they make and excuse that they have route cuts and decide to just lay you off instead of just cut hours. They don't really care, they treat you like they don't know you after they let you go. 

This is a great gig if you're looking for temporary work. Do not expect it to be permanent. I was hired during peak season, and let go right after the new year. The job was fun, peak season was heavy. The coworkers were nice people and a good crew. Dispatch wasn't bad but it did feel like you were just another number to them.
The hardest part was learning how to organize your packages so you can breeze through them.
The most enjoyable was the physical activity, you would definitely hit around 20,000 steps a day at least.

Your hard work is really appreciated here. There’s no micromanagement, Our managers really do the best in setting you up for success. All of them have been drivers at one point, so they really do understand what it’s like to be behind the wheel and not just an office. It is rewarding, you just have to put some work in like anywhere. The opportunity for money is there, you’re able to make bonuses every week! All in all, this company is awesome, They have your back, they do the best they can to make the environment fun and friendly! 

This job doesn’t care about you had a death in the family  and they still gave me a point as well as having covid symptoms went to get tested  and try to fire me for excessive call in due to going to the doctor i have had documentation they didn’t care if you have health issues do not work for this company they don’t take good care of there Vans some workers have to work on with no ac had a guy have a van with no windshield wipers the weather was real bad he had to sit for hours until it stopped raining to get back to the station safely
