Pros

I greatly appreciated the friendly working environment. Peers and superiors were especially courteous and respectful with one another and shared resources ideas and suggestions. I received feedback and guidance while on the job which was helpful.

Cons

There were some organizational changes afoot that colleagues found distracting. This may have led to a certain amount of concern around 'turf'. It was all very subtle, but people were occasionally on edge about their place in the organization and the amount of respect perceived by their peers. For the most part, this did not get out of hand, but rather was an occasional source of stress.

Cons

buerucratic place , sophisticated to work and multinational culture. most of the time you are focusing inside the organization to get approval for necessary element rather than competing your challenging environment . most of the time you are as a bare hand soldier than other multinational competitor

Pros

A global corporation whith important challenges and the resources to find the solutions and growth. Pfizer supports innovation and creativity and also is trying to be as fast as a mid size company with out loosing its basic management controls. The internal resources are great, there is no reason to not do your job, Training, Knowledge, Support, Collaboartion, all is avaialble at Pfizer. Some Executive Directors are really role models, the vision and the mission of the company is thru and not only a sentence in a piece of paper. You can live the values. The company also beleive in its employees

Cons

the challenges do not have a solution yet (as far as we know) and all the time staff cuts are the solution to keep the numbers for Wall Street It is very difficult to grow inside Pfizer and when you finally do it, HR tries to give you a very small compensation
