Pros

Great facility with all the fancy bells and whistles. The benefits and compensation are great, won't get anywhere near it in academe.

Cons

It's very corporate. In my 1 year there, there were 3 massive lay-offs as projects just got dumped; even scientists who were very accomplished and had been there for 10 years lost their jobs. It didn't affect me, but other post-docs lost their mentors and project, and kind of got lost in the shuffle.

Pros

Cannot think of one good thing to say about Pfizer IT. Seriously.

Cons

It's considered cool to yell at people in meetings. Layoffs occur every two weeks like clockwork.
