Pros

Good opportunity to network with cross functional colleagues, able to work with different projects, lots of learning, good HMO. You get the Pfizer branding.

Cons

Salary is SO LOW vs market value. They will lowball you so bad. Culture is punitive, management is not objective and politics is strong. The value of courage does not apply to questioning management decisions- you will get in trouble one way or another if you speak up or raise concerns. If you are a person who thinks independently and performs well, you will not thrive here because management wants robots who follow whatever they want (even when it doesn’t make sense). Feedback is not welcome and is considered threatening to management. Growth is very slow and asking for growth is a problem-not sure if this is a company-wide thing or if it’s just a department thing.

Pros

Good pay and benefits. Despite the failures of leadership, bonus payouts are excellent. Smart people who still care.

Cons

Executive leadership is completely out of touch and the company is directionless. Every year there are multiple rounds of layoffs, aging infrastructure gets worse every year, morale is low and the joke is that people hang on to “get a package”. Opportunities for advancement are very few and far between.
