      Pros

      great pay with great benefits.

      Cons

      It seems like our "plan of action" is always changing, so you have to be easily adaptable to changing job functions, schedules and work structure.

      Great Place to Work

      Pros

      They have lots of huge brands with great equity. Good salary. Fun environment. Lots of opportunities to learn and build your marketing skills post-MBA.

      Cons

      Some awkwardness after Schering/Merck merger. Smaller CPG from a product portfolio and headcount perspective - there are opportunities to rotate to different brands, but there isn't as much product diversity here as is offered at other CPGs in the greater NYC area. Not easily accessible by mass transit. The consumer division is a small division when compared with other divisions in broader Merck...and it is also new to Merck - so decision makers may not support this particular division as readily as they will others.
