      Best company I have worked for!

      Associate director
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Merck is a fantastic company. They truly value diversity and inclusion. I am an industry transplant and they value my experience outside pharma. Additionally, the benefits are phenomenal. By far the best company I have worked for in my entire career.

      Cons

      Large company and if you are not aggressive in looking for your next role you can get stuck in the same job for years. Some people actually see this as a positive, but if you want to move you will be responsible for it.

      Toxic team environment

      Communications director
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good benefits. Strong name to have on resume. Opportunity to travel.

      Cons

      Executive leadership doesn't deal with toxic leaders (even when they are aware of widespread issues). Bureaucratic. Not invented here syndrome.
