On this episode of Career on Purpose, we're joined by Erika Belsaas, a senior specialist in engineering and Global Lead of MSD’s Rainbow Alliance – the employee resource group (EBRG) focused on supporting individuals in the LGBTQ+ community.

At many large companies, diversity, equity and inclusion (or DE&I) programs can be performative, check-the-box empty promises. Not at MSD. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community herself, Erika shares the story of her professional and personal journey at Merck and how she came to lead the Rainbow Alliance.
