Pros

Salary, vacation time and emphasize on never using "PTO" for things like emergencies or sick days, great team full of motivated like-minded people.

Cons

Research can always be demanding so sometimes the schedule is a lot, more than your normal workweek. But when you're passionate about your career, it happens.

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.
