Pluspunten

flexibility in schedule, healthcare benefits are excellent, 401K very good. Perks that go along with being associated with a large, global company. Peers in the organization are very smart and creative.

Minpunten

Due to flexible sourcing model, job opportunities in other areas of the business are outsourced out instead on becoming open to internal candidates. Spending on travel to conferences, client sites, and Merck sites have been cut. New requests for approval for MBA tuition reimbursement are on hold. Morale is extremely low, and i feel some people are bitter towards their collegaues because there is such fierce competition for jobs and bonuses.

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.
