Pros

- Very collaborative and colleague wellness and mental well being proponent atmosphere. - Open door policy in terms of feedback. Encourage you to be independent and lead. - Great opportunities of doing really good science.

Cons

- Size hurts most development work. Redundant corporate policies and red tape can often be impeding timelines and efficiencies. Possibly plagues every big company but there's a lot of opportunity to optimize. - Compensations are not on par to companies valuated as high as Pfizer. Would be a great leap forward in retaining talent and preventing turnover if organization wide salary reharmonization can take place. - Still a little old school in terms of structure and promotion. Complex org charts and unnecessary tiers in different orgs. Lot of emphasis on time spent in a role at a certain level than the impact on projects and performance.

Pros

pay is decent but don't let the titles fool you.

Cons

the department leadership do not have a clue what it means to proceess payroll. They are unorganized and constantly let other departments tell them how to process items. We are continually working late because leadership does not stick to deadlines. Leadership does not prioritize anything but what is in their head at the time they see you/speak to you. Too many folks avoid seeing/speaking to leadership so they can avoid working!
