Pros

Good salary, still decent benefits, good work/life balance

Cons

Highly political. Lots of groups with overlapping responsibilities. Under constant reorganization creating a very disruptive work environment. Good people are leaving if they haven't left already. Lack of transparency in promotions. Terrible communication from senior management. They say they respect people, but they really don't. Struggling to change their culture - please no more slogans.

Pros

Excellent compensation, good networking and information sharing across sites. I enjoyed working for Pfizer and the many great employees.

Cons

Poor communication, top down management style. Politics often plays roles in position filling/creating rather than knowledge or ability.

Pros

Good money even for entry level techs. Three weeks vacation right out of the gate. Great prescription plan.

Cons

Different messages sent throughout the managment levels. Unfavorable works schedules. Lacks a sense of pride and unity. Very much an "us" vs "them" environment between management and workers.
