Pros

The company portrays that they have great benefits. However once you looking into each of their benefits you quickly realize they have these sneaky little policies to offset them. Take for instance they offer life insurance but it ends when you turn 65. Than their Long term disability plan is a welfare funded plan so anything you collect on LTD you have to pay the company back entirely for the amount. They have gotten working women awards but I have no idea how as 400 female employees have a class action lawsuit for discriminating and not paying them the same as their male peers. Their benefits appear to be good but look into each and you will quickly find that they are some of the worst out there. A very sneaky and unethical company. Sorry to say I once worked there...

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.
