Pros

Pfizer has some of the most talented professionals I've ever worked with. The scale of the organization allows for incredible growth opportunities and experiences.

Cons

The company is experiencing declining revenues due to loss of exclusivity on products. This means major cost cutting. There are opportunities; however, it can be draining work.
