People mean nothing. If you do your job in the best way but don't play games, you have no chance to be promoted

Pros

good work environment and great people flexibility (working hours and work from home) good salary and benefits if you are a Merck's employee fresh fruits every morning, free friday breakfast and cakes once a month

Cons

it's a good company if you are a Merck's employee, if you are a contractor there are some differences in treatment(salary and benefits, accessibility to vacancies) management sometimes not so good and it changes very often
