The cost cutting measures and bad management decisions make it difficult.
Pros
Remnant management left from Wyeth makes the job tolerable as well as my hard working coworkers. It gets more and more difficult to think of reasons that make this company a good one to work for, at least in my position and location. Senior site management is open to suggestions and promotes education and innovation.
Cons
Flattening has reduced opportunity for advancement. Reduction in force has reduced opportunity even for lateral movement. If you're in work related to manufacturing, you're stuck where you are. Layoffs have become a yearly occurrence. Management is making stupid decisions. Want a new laptop? Tough luck this year, even if your equipment is slower than a snail. Also, layoff all the people in manufacturing who know what they're doing. When things fall into chaos, hire all new people who have no idea what they're doing who use up all the time of the few people left who do because they're busy training the new hires. Then scratch your head and wonder why everything's going to hell. Introduce all kinds of new systems for purchase requisitions, documents and other things then sit back and watch all the frustration when people try to learn several new things at once. Pfizer is doing a great job of ruining our integrity while encouraging us to "Own It."
