Business outlook
Pros
Ultra competitive compensation, outstanding benefits, opportunity for advancement, and a CEO who I believe is heading the company in the proper direction.
Cons
Littered with a number of old "Big Pharma" top down micro Managers, so be careful during the interview process and ensure you ask the right qquestions relative to the attributes you find important in the person you report to. Pfizer has outstanding talent in their respective fields, but that talent does not translate to sound Managerial skills, and with little to no Management training offered, the company seemingly promotes based on the technical knowledge of a candidate as opposed to recognizing the critical skill sets that translates to Managerial success.
