Avantages

Large site, many good people and opportunities.

Inconvénients

At the time I was there, before the most recent cutbacks, there was an undercurrent of poor attitude. Never encountered an atmosphere of disrespect and a lack of willingness to assist a new employee. Honestly felt there was something wrong on the second day of orientation. The attitude and treatment of the people was a real eye opener. I would imagine it has gotten worse with the recent cutbacks. It had been a sterling company growing up in the area. The quote "All that glitters is not gold" rings true.

Avantages

Great benefits like medical/dentist/vision, pension, stock option, 401k match. Co workers are excellent, pretty good on site symposiums, lot of diversity clubs/activities. Innovation is extremely welcomed. Diversity in research portfolio. AI/ML is heavily invested to make databases more efficient.

Inconvénients

Micro managing, especially within the biologics department, potentially others. Promotions are limited, and pay bump is poor. Company invests too much in buying companies rather than keeping talent - lay offs let go of great talented people. Merck is afraid of investing into exploratory biology and doesn’t take risk - they even admit they would rather see other companies clinical data or R&D data rather than taking a risk. Although it’s slow going in building new software, current databases are slow and needs much improvement. Extremely poor work/life balance.
