Pros

Powerful company -- intellectually, financially, and in what it can do for society. Very good benefits. Very influential. Has the potential to really make a difference for people around the world.

Cons

Hierarchical (though it's trying to change). Conservative and stodgy. Uber-political to the detriment of its employees and its external reputation. Too decentralized and not willing to make bold moves.

Pros

Work / Life balance is great! The resources and competetive knowledge are bar none. Management typically has a good handle on the local business and supports both personal and professional development.

Cons

Pfizer is a huge titanic of a company that takes forever to affect change. There are so many layers of management that it makes it challenging to get anything substantial accomplished in terms of having a direct impact on the way business is executed.
