Classically trained Marketers come out of Merck, if you were there before Schering Merger. Good example of how to market primary care products. If you are on the "A" list of talent, you have opportunity. Trying to figure out how to play in a world where there are not always blockbusters
Cons
Horrible Morale; constant layoffs; NOT a good place to be to learn about Oncology Marketing; R&D is not set up to really be a leader if drug development for specialty or oncology products. Highly beaureacratic. Somewhat political
