Pros

Great benefits and for the most part pay scale. Have made alot of life-long friends

Cons

Alot of favoritism and many opportunities for advancement, especially if you do not have a Master's degree. They value degrees over knowledge and experience except for their executive team who half only had Master degrees or above. Work environment is dismal due to so many cutbacks and work overload.

Pros

Great group of professional people all committed to success. Lots of opportunities to learn new things and processes to to ensure disciplined work ethic.

Cons

Management (globally and locally) always changing strategies and over-reacting rather than staying on course. Expectations are high for productivity and work-life balance is impacted. Empowerment is preached but rarely practiced.

Pros

GSK allows conduct of research that can prove extremely beneficial to patients all over the work. Although there are many unnecessary tasks assigned it is still a great company to work for.

Cons

There are a great deal of unnecessary tasks assigned by the Senior Executive Team, which they feel will improved efficiency of the organization.
