Pros

Good salaries, good benefits.

Kontras

Poor leadership. Upper management don't know what is going on, but they like to cut costs and corners here and that you are just a number. They don't appreciate how hard you work and there is no job security here. Management change their minds everyday. Their decisions affect other areas/departments and they also do not consider this prior to making decisions. It is impossible to perform the current work to stay afloat in addition to implementing these new, revolving changes. The work culture is that you work more than the typical 9-5 hours on weekdays. It is expected that you bring work home on the weekends as well, so you are looking at 50+ hours per week. People here go on vacation and still have to bring their work laptops with them to check their emails. This is a sinking company.

Pros

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.

Kontras

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.
