Pros

Supportive Environment, Inspired Colleagues Pfizer colleagues share a common passion for working in intellectually challenging environments. We thrive on solving some of the most intricate scientific puzzles and creating real-life treatment options for some of the most debilitating diseases in the world. We are proud that whatever our role is at Pfizer, we all share the common purpose of innovating to bring therapies to patients that significantly improve their lives. Having access to groundbreaking science, cutting-edge technological resources, as well as working side-by-side with the industry’s leading professionals, allow our colleagues to achieve their most important professional and personal goals. Pfizer’s commitment to global inclusiveness allows for a culturally rich working environment. Each distinctive background lends itself to a new idea, and no idea is too small or too big. We encourage communication and results-driven working styles and are able to offer our colleagues an adaptable environment where they can function at their highest level. Recognizing the importance of cross-functional exposure, we provide our colleagues with the opportunity to participate in rotating assignments so they can become well-rounded, and gain exposure to the “bench to bedside” process. This means marketing executives have the opportunity to work next to leading scientists and vice versa. We all have a something to learn and something to teach. Pfizer views this type of in-house education as investment in our colleagues with the ultimate goal of better science and improved world health.

Cons

·It can be an all or nothing deal. ·Your policies might have to adapt. ·You might have to walk on egg shells.

Pros

Pfizer offers employees an environment where they can be surrounded by people who are motivated and passionate about their work. The company is working towards a goal of helping clients live a healthier and longer life. At Pfizer, employees are eager to help one another with new projects and initiatives that can help internal or external operations work better.

Cons

It is a very large company with many priorities which can prevent things from happening quickly. It can take a while for a project to get off the ground, just because it may need to be approved by a number of people.
