Pros

They used to have a descent benefit package.

Cons

I spent over seven years working my way out of an administrative job then to be laid off without given any other employment options. I worked full time and went to college to gain my BA with a 3.46 average and now I am going for my Master's degree and I can't even get an interview with this company. I spend over 4 additional years as a contractor and was mistreated by their subsidary company called TelerX as a project manager. I have 4.0 average and will graduate this year and spent most of my career with Merck won over 5 awards but I can't get an interview with them for a management position. I know their systems and could help enhance their strategic HR planning to help advance and make them more competitive.
