Avantages

The pay is fairly decent for the area. The amount of equipment and procedures used/performed here allow employees to learn a broad array of techniques in a heavily regulated environment.

Inconvénients

There is very poor morale and work-life balance among almost all levels of employment here. Shifts are always longer than anticipated and stress and fatigue are pervasive. The amount of auxiliary tasks expected from technicians is constantly expanding while management shrinks from the picture. In any given day, managers won't have so much as stepped foot into the building they are supposed to be managing, resulting in technicians operating in a blind-leading-the-blind work force.

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.
