Pyrazine belongs to $D_{2h}$, the D2h point group. With the printed axes, its three twofold axes are $x,y,z$; it also has an inversion centre and the three coordinate mirror planes. The nitrogen atoms occupy sites 1 and 4 on the $y$ axis. Interchanging carbon and nitrogen is not a molecular symmetry operation, so the sixfold benzene symmetry is lost.
