Pros

There are plenty of resources available because of the sheer size of Pfizer. The pay and benefits are exceedingly good. Training at Pfizer is good and it enables the job to be done easily. There is not a lot of travel at Pfizer.

Cons

Pfizer is on the downslope of its glory years. Most of its drugs are either just off patent protection or are to go off patent protection within the next few years. management is more focused on meeting quarterly goals than they are in creating a dynamic and inclusive work environment. I would recommend waiting until 2012 to pursue a job at Pfizer.

Pros

A good amount of remote monitoring, which depending on how you view can be a positive.

Cons

Changing systems and inconsistent standards are applied to people. There are many differing models that often muddy how you are supposed to do your job, especially when other staff members don't quite understand. How do you interface with the changing models? There tends to be a lot of blame and foisting of responsibilities. Sometimes you can become overburdened with a lot of work, where people do not respect your time and think that their tasks should take priority. It is possible to be contacted late at night with work to do and then be criticized the next day for not being able to keep up.
