Pfizer Reviews

Contractors let go due to job cuts.

we do not have notifications about who will be in place, and who will be leaving at the time of layoff.

Work life balance, salary is not competitive, limited room for growth in some groups

poor paid for the amount of experience

Many overloaded with work, too many systems, too many stakeholders, making clinical trials execution even more complex and inefficient. Too many changes (new come before the recent ones have been established properly) and big rotation of staff in projects.

The positions are not examined equaly, you will see people as Managers with 2 years of experience and also with 15 years of experience and that means they both get the same salary. Promotions are hardly given and the salary increase is pretty low. A senior manager earns 5% more than a manager and so on. The most suitable option is to aquire the best contract at the beggining (highest position possible for you) because you are going to stay in that position for many years regardless your efforts. Almost zero utilization for most employees most of the day is spent just doing nothing instead of providing your skills to crucial operations of the organization. Compared to other companies the benefits are pretty low you get a car after becoming a Director (hardly ever) which in other brands you can get a car from a position of assistant manager. The salary is mediocre for high positions (Manager and above) and low for junior positions such as associate/sr.associate compared to other companies. The company in Greece is HR driven (greek HR) which means what ever your Manager decides for you (promotion,raise,relocation,benefits) has to be accepted from the HR first (hardly ever happens).

-Poor benefits when working overtime

More interested in profitability than developing science. Disproportionate amount of their innovation comes through M&A.

For mobile opportunities you have to spend lots of years

Overwhelming amount of testing and requirements
