      Constant Layoffs with Lots of employee turnover...not much gets done.

      Pros

      Pros – - good benefit and compensation - very little workload and very little work being done - onsite gym and flexible working hours - helping your manager renovating his house will get you a long way

      Cons

      Cons – - all politics and no reward for hard work - be careful with the HR. They could lure you back from cancer treatment and lay you off - limited career growth for minorities and women in general - severance package getting worse over the years

      Interviewed for the position I held as a contractor for more than a year

      Pros

      Encouraged me right up until the end! - took advantage of all of my ideas for improvement and really improved the program...

      Cons

      Told me that they preferred to hire within - when asked for them to confirm that 1. I didn't have the most experience or 2. I didn't have the best ideas for program improvement or 3. I wasn't the best fit for the program and job description - I was told - "No, I didn't say any of that. What I am saying is this is the best for Pfizer, Inc. People are losing their jobs - we need to put them somewhere." - I then went on to set up a new infrastructure and train all of the "new hires" - people they needed to put somewhere so that they didn't have to report them as turnover...

      Pros

      Good salary and benefits. Twice a year weekly Sales Conference with all Swiss staff in high end hotels, all costs covered. Met a lot of nice and friendly people during my stint.

      Cons

      Due to the nature of the products the company manufactures and markets, the studies used to illustrate their supposed higher efficiency and thus convince MDs and other opinion leaders to prescribe the drugs, are not always reliable and, frequently, the figures used in them are statistical outliers. This practice however, is not exclusive to this company.
