Avantages

They have great products. Their name is still fairly good, despite recent beatings.

Inconvénients

They lump people together in district data, so you have no national sales ranking and no way to give another company performance data. If your district doesn't finish first or second, no one wins awards, and EVERYONE on the first place team, regardless of whether they deserve it, wins. Very weird system. In addition, they freeze the promotion ladder for YEARS at a time, so despite promises of promotions, expect to barely get cost of living increases every year. They also don't support sales very well---very slow moving responses and small budgets.

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.
