      Pros

      Great people to work with having tremendous passion and desire to achieve success. In light of my recent layoff, Pfizer has provided me with many tools and experiences.

      Cons

      From a corporate point of view, way too much focus on making money with the employee bearing the brunt of the sacrifice e.g. ongoing reductions, foreign manufacturing, outsourcing. Too much change and uncertainty. Unfortunatley, advancement within the company is based on perception, not reality.

      Pros

      Way too few to mention

      Cons

      Too many to list: Cronyism. Lay offs occur every two weeks like clockwork. It's the only thing that HR does efficiently. This is not a research based pharmaceutical company... Pfizer is a Merger and Acquisition machine that has zero heart Think "The Borg" and "Assimilation" and you have a good idea of a 'nice' day at Pfizer
