Avantages

The company does provide opportunities to grow, and many managers support rotations throughout different parts of the organization. Merck pays well.

Inconvénients

1) I can't say roles and responsibilities are always clear -- too many people trying to create busy work; Merck is definitely over resourced in some areas. 2) Management, especially middle management, is not well experience, seasoned, nor mature. They create a lot of overhead to justify their roles in the system. 3) Direction from management is never clear. Initiaitives from management will make their way down through the system, and they middle management spin to understand how to deliver a product of value. Perhaps point 2 contributes to the problem again.

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.
