It's all a popularity contest or you're gaslit

Pros

If you have a good manager it can be great. You can jump from role to role easily if they like you.

Cons

- Pfizer’s acquisition of Seagen destroyed the great culture we had in Bothell. - Pfizer’s culture is a popularity contest, especially in the New York scene. They admit as much in department meetings. They'll keep bringing back people they laid off if they like them, despite incompetence or job qualifications. - I've never had a more toxic manager or experience than at Pfizer. If the manager doesn't like you or doesn't want to hear your ideas, the accepted culture is to quiet fire people until they leave. (So I left, rather than be treated like garbage.) - They want robots to follow orders, no creative or innovative ideas welcome. They hide their true intentions under a disguise of being collaborative. - toxic leadership is encouraged to be as such and defended by HR
