Pros

Flexible work schedule, nice offices, caring leadership and reasonable enough pay/benefits. bascially, good working conditions.

Cons

Bureaucracy, impatience for results, micromanagement, aversion to innovation, conservative - all the things you consider of big pharma - risk aversion but reasonably secure role and wage. Needed to play along to get ahead - fit the Merck mold and you will be fine - dont rock the boat

Pros

Work from home (that may not always be a perk, but it is now for writers), choice of flexible hours (7 AM - 9 AM starting), friendly, helpful people, great bosses, people very interested in their jobs, plus a lot of educational benefits, you are trained on all aspects of Merck and your job.

Cons

I cannot think of any, though sometimes work from home has its drawbacks, because the employee doesn't get all the information that an onsite employee would.
