Avantages

Paycheck and lifestyle. As with most pharma companies, you can expect to be micro-managed, but at least Schering is still using paper for signitures so you can't be tracked like a UPS man.

Inconvénients

The pharma industry in general. Layoffs are and will be happening more and more. The way I look at Schering, and the entire pharmaceutical industry, is that they have you trapped. What I mean is, they pay nice salaries, give you a car, good benefits. But management is constantly on top of you when bogus market sahre numbers come down which in most cases you can't even control. This is NOT a true sales job. You are very rarely selling anything. Now you are lucky to get more than 2 minutes with a doctor and you are definitely not respected.

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.
