Pluspunten

Very understanding when it comes to taking time of for family, emergencies, etc. Very respectful of work/life balance. Good health benefits. Full vestiture of 401K on your first day of employment. Good 401k match.

Minpunten

Advancement doesn't really seem possible. Everyone who's there has been there for a very long time. Advancement isn't based on achievement or the quality of your work, just seniority. Middle management (at the West Point site in Lansdale, PA) is completely incompetent.

Pluspunten

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.

Minpunten

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.
