Pros

Work life balance, matching 401K plan that vests every quarter, vesting defined contribution that vests every 3 years, pfizer Fridays during the summer hours. Working from home every Friday, ongoing speaker series throughout the year.

Cons

Finance is very lean therefore roles are very limited and growth opportunities are very few and ones available have pre-identified candidates. If the manager does not like you, he/she can be vindictive. LTI is extremely tricky and manager can play his/employee and there is nothing one can do about it.

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.
