Pros

location is great benefits are very competitive talented colleagues but we seem to be lowering the bar you can still find the old culture here and there

Cons

lack of a long term vision and strong leadership, hence it's hard to plan any sort of a medium or long term career at Pfizer. Sr. management is new to the industry and has different priorities and objectives (not sure what they are). old culture where our vision and people come first has all but disappeared. resources are being taking away...need to learn to do much more with much less. lack of development and career growth opportunities... despite the "scrappy" initiatives, mgmt is still bureaucratic and slow.

Pros

Better than average compensation, New York location is a plus if you live in the city. Good perks and priviliges, like healthcare package, 401K, etc.

Cons

If you enjoy working in an environment where there is annual restructuring, lack of clear direction and the constant threat of layoffs in a very political environment, this place is for you

Pros

Big company decent salary and benefit. Good for a 1st job.

Cons

Unless you have a PhD from a big university your carrier will be very limited. Pfizer does not support scientist it is only interested in profits.
