Explanation:

Mercenary is one who always works for money not for achieving any organizational goal. Mercenary culture is one in which employees have the same thinking. Employees are not friends with each other. It is the culture in which everyone thinks of his benefit. People are more determined to win even if they have to sacrifice their ethics.
