That is tricky. It is two syllables, and they have about equal stress, the first can have a slightly stronger stress. The first is pronounced PIT. To get how the second is pronounced, say the phrase "care not!" Two words, two syllables. Now say it, but stop after vocalizing the 'n'. It's not a frequent way for English words to end, but it is not unique to this word. Try born, worn, barn, and many others.
