When I heard this news I was surprised at the number, I was saying to myself, “How many sales employees do they have anyway”? I did the math…..

1,200 = 15% of Merck’s sales force. If you do the math that means they have a sales force of 8,000.

Being the curious person I am, I was saying to myself, “How many employees do they have total”? I found out…

According to Monster they have approximately 73,000 employees. This means that approximately 11% of Merck’s employees are in sales.

Don’t know about you, but that seems like a lot of sales people to me.
