      Great benefits don't entirely make up for lagging salaries

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Fantastic benefits package; reasonable vacation/sick day policies.

      Cons

      No clear promotion path or rhyme/reason as to why some people get promoted and others don't. Salary scales are obtuse. Nobody I know is happy with what they are making.

      Pros

      - Great benefits i.e. healthcare plan. - Flexible work schedules (New York office has summer Fridays for most of daylight savings) - Work/life balance is very reasonable. - Opportunity to move laterally to increase skillset.

      Cons

      - Divisions operate in silos. - Communication of new strategy is vague and employees may not understand how they can add value to help jumpstart Pfizer.

      Pros

      Product Portfolio at one time was outstanding. Scale and ability to attract talented Scientists and Clinicians were also a benefit. Each research site was told that your ability to deliver on portfolio was critical to the site's viability.

      Cons

      Frequent site closures and lack of ability to focus on a single 'game plan' certainly dampened much of the enthusiasm & luck needed to deliver NDAs. The rate of in-licensing attrition was nearly as poor as development of 'in-house' candidates (many phase III pfailures). Retention of talented Scientists has also become more difficult as everyone counts the months until atorvastatin's patent expires.
