Our Vision
INTERESTED IN WORKING FOR MERRILL?
LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
Fifty years ago, our company started as a small machine shop in Merrill, Michigan, where my dad ran the equipment, my mom kept the books and the whole family made deliveries of auto parts in the family station wagon.
We’ve grown since then — from a supplier to companies that are global leaders, to a company that leads the way. We’re known as the company that will tackle challenges others can’t handle: The company where anything is possible.
Now, we’ve gone through another evolution. We are now One MERRILL. We’ve brought all of our divisions under one umbrella, making us more efficient, more effective and even better able to support our customers’ needs in an increasingly competitive market. One MERRILL better reflects who we are as a team. Unified, integrated and stronger together.
That’s because for us, teamwork is more than just a concept. It is a foundation for our every day operations and it’s how we approach our decisions about responsibility and accountability. It determines how we interact with one another and our customers, suppliers and strategic partners.
Today, we stand poised for the next fifty years. Thank you for being part of it.
Sincerely,
Robert Yackel

Through my career, I have received the necessary training and certifications to evolve from an entry level NDT Technician to a Certified Professional Level III. Working for a company that invests in their people is proof that MERRILL makes anything possible.”
Brad North

“Throughout my 20 years with MERRILL, I have worked on some of the coolest projects in the industry, including large 160,000-pound off-shore oil platforms, remote weapon systems for our nation’s Military and large scale mining equipment. To complete these projects, MERRILL has some of the most advanced equipment and machinery in the market today. The leadership at MERRILL is made up of people who have worked on the floor of each business unit. They realize that investing in machines and equipment is not only a necessity for efficiency in the workplace, but making MERRILL a better place to work.”

"I grew up locally, which allowed me to see how MERRILL has grown as a company throughout the years. That growth intrigued me. After I did my research, I pursued a career at MERRILL. Their values and mission aligned with my career objectives and I knew MERRILL would be a great fit for me, while allowing me to stay close to home. What I really like about MERRILL is not only the people I get to interact with; it’s the ability to be a part of a close-knit team that genuinely cares about what we do. I am able to expand my knowledge and apply that knowledge to grow with MERRILL as we evolve now and into the future."

"MERRILL has given me the tools to achieve my career goals. Since joining MERRILL in 2012 as an assembler, I learned the skills needed to transition into the role of Shipping & Receiving Clerk. The shipping role allowed me to learn even more about MERRILL and its processes, leading me into an Inventory Management position. Today, I am able to implement my wealth of knowledge as a Project Manager.”
