      Pros

      At Merck you will have the opportunity to make a difference. There are many different aspects within the current environment that are open for development by someone who is willing to put forth the effort.

      Cons

      The environment is somewhat sober. Most people are so busy that it is difficult to develop close or personal relationships. There are also many new changes and processes that must be followed. The first time through can be somewhat painful, and when you think you finally have it, the process gets changed. We are moving toward standardization, which should, eventually, make the business run more smoothly...for now, though, there are growing pains.

      Great educational opportunities, great benefits, good work/life balance policies. The opportunity to be part of developing new drugs that meet the public need is appealing. The people who work there are highly educated and most people are very competent at what they do. There are many opportunities for social networking through special interest groups.

      Cons

      difficult to advance careeer path without a powerful manager to advocate for you, bonus structure highly subjective, low pay scale,
