Pros

People! The people here are fantastic and my management has been great. I enjoy what I do on a day to day basis and there are endless opportunities if you are willing to take them.

Cons

It's a large company with a lot of bureaucracy and slow moving parts. This is not necessarily unique to Pfizer but it can be frustrating. Also, no Christmas parties. This might be a petty gripe but come on - its an multi billion dollar company and nothing?
