Mercury Payment Systems® Surpasses 500 Employee Mark
Local Start-Up Celebrates 10 years of Continued Economic Contribution
DURANGO, CO – November 4, 2011
Mercury Payment Systems® announced this week that it has reached a milestone of 500 employees. Thomas Bentley of Mercury's In-bound Customer Support center in the Durango headquarters is the 500th employee. One of the fastest-growing payment processing companies in North America, the integrated payment processor celebrated its 10th anniversary this year.
"We continue to actively recruit for both the Durango and Denver offices," said Karl Reeb, Senior Vice President, Human Resources. "But, reaching 500 is a huge milestone for our company and cause for a big celebration."
To honor the achievement, the company is awarding one lucky employee with a trip for two to the Indianapolis 500 that includes round trip air travel, tickets, accommodations, and more.
"Throughout the economic downturn, Mercury's commitment to growing our Durango headquarters and second office in Denver allowed us to continue to provide competitive wages and a full suite of Mercury benefits, including comprehensive health benefits and a 401K match," said Reeb.
In July 2011, the company was named a Best Company to Work for in Colorado by the Society of Human Resource Management (SHRM) Colorado State Council for a second time.
