Pros

Business accumen & domain development AND great family values (not work lefe balance - values, meaning you will be worked to the bone, but, should you need to do something with your family that is reactive - they are VERY supportive!)

Cons

Back stabbing leadership team & managers; focus on managing chaos than managing the future - less risk to be a professional problem pointer-outer and BLAME people than to actuallu resolve the problems...

Pros

Pfizer has a great benefits program with excellent coverage for all drugs and almost every health issue under the sun. Good internal relocation package, as well.

Cons

Pfizer is a combination of three cultures, all dysfunctional. Also, there is a sense of $$ entitlement among senior management. If you're in NYC, the benefits are plush (car service, helicopters, nights at hotels) but the rest of the company is meant to scrape by and endure layoffs. Seems unfair.

Pros

Great benefits. Comparable compensation to the rest of the industry.

Cons

Where should I start. There's the ever-present dark cloud of downsizing hanging over our heads. Upper management primarily is only looking out for themselves, and those that might want to change the culture haven't got the power or influence to actually change anything.
