Pros

The company still holds tremendous resources that it can apply -- if it can finally commit to a single vision for the future. The stock price is flat and has been that way despite products being launched and others recalled -- in this economy a flat stock price is pretty good. People like to knock Kindler (CEO) -- apparently there are thousands that believe they can do a better job -- but I think he has his hands tied by an underachieving board (and that's what needs change).

Cons

Change...change...change. The ink has not dried on one reorganization when another is already announced. The board is not laying out a consistent vision for the future of the company and enabling senior leaders to execute. It gets tiring listening to "old timers" complain about how the old Pfizer used to be so much better.

Pros

We produce drugs that help people in a broad array of therapeutic areas. Some of the smartest people in the world work at Pfizer. The environment is very collegial for the most part. The company is a global company with a presence in many countries, and a headquarters office in the middle of Manhattan. The company's stock pays a nice dividend.

Cons

The company is in a state of constant change and disruption, so it is very difficult to get things done. Pfizer's stock price seems to constantly get worse. Many promotion decisions seem to be made without a fair and transparent process, and are often not meritorious.
