Pros

You get to work with a lot of very smart people and the salaries are generally competitive.

Cons

The instability of the company and continued downsizing. There is limitless bureaucracy and new processes are constantly rolled out when they aren't usually necessary. A lot of the older people who have been at Pfizer seem to work 9-4 and aren't very interested in change.

Pros

A good amount of remote monitoring, which depending on how you view can be a positive.

Cons

Changing systems and inconsistent standards are applied to people. There are many differing models that often muddy how you are supposed to do your job, especially when other staff members don't quite understand. How do you interface with the changing models? There tends to be a lot of blame and foisting of responsibilities. Sometimes you can become overburdened with a lot of work, where people do not respect your time and think that their tasks should take priority. It is possible to be contacted late at night with work to do and then be criticized the next day for not being able to keep up.
