Avantages

good benefits package, work-life balance, working remotely encouraged

Inconvénients

no stability whatsoever. IT is establishing multiple "technology hubs" overseas, hiring new employees there, and firing them here. This is separate from the off-shoring to third party vendors. Nothing but constant cutbacks year by year. Annual merit increases fall well below the annual cost of living increases as well. If you are an IT/quality assurance professional, AVOID Merck.

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.
