What's It Like to Work at Pfizer?

Pfizer Employee Perspectives

If you have a great idea, it’s not like you have to struggle for a long time to try to find the right environment to bring it to fruition. Pfizer provides the best of both worlds; the scrappiness of a startup with the scale of one of the world’s largest companies in healthcare.

There are so many people around the world who need our medicines, and the work that we are doing to get it to them is really powerful. We’ve got a group called Accord that helps deliver these medicines to people even if they have trouble getting access we can provide it to them. It’s something I’m really proud of; It gives me purpose in what I do.

For me, it’s the mission and purpose of creating breakthroughs that change patients’ lives. When I was younger, I grew up around a lot of sickness in my family, I always wanted to work at  a place where I felt they were doing something for the good of people.
