Pros

Pfizer is a global leader in the pharmaceutical industry with a strong history of innovation and strength. Working for this company often commands respect and admiration. Our culture is one of strong technical knowledge, professionalism, and strong work ethic.

Cons

This is a company in transition. The loss of the Lipitor patent has been the focus of senior management's efforts, which has adversely affected their focus on the other products they have in line. Also, because of the way the organization is structure, it is very difficult to move up unless you are willing to relocate often to various sites. This can be difficult for those which a family and especially a working spouse.

Pros

It is hard to find a job in such economic condition. Pharma industry is recession proof. The company super rich in cash and margin is outrageously high.

Cons

Bureaucratic management, just do the talking any very versed in office politics. Cannot see the value of many people like those in HR.
