Pros

Pays well. Product is valued and a sense of pride is instilled in the product manufactured. Quality company to work for. Until recently Merck had a very low turn-over rate.

Cons

A very high stress environment distinct line between management and laborers. Management and Union have a great and long lasting distrust of each other. This results in much tension, stress and finger pointing.

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.
