Pros

Most people would tell you that GSK fostered a great work life balance. They also have great training programs and are big advocated of personal development.

Cons

Several, significant rounds of downsizing continue to make the office a tough place to work. Headquarters outside of the U.S.

Pros

Globally recognized organization. Excellent Phramceutical products.

Cons

The opportunities that existed have slowly faded away. Budget cuts are restricting education, travel. Upgrades to IT hardware and software are minimized. Morale is low as the constant restructing/outsourcing/downsizing takes place. So called smart office space (table and chair) instead of a cube/office or personal space makes for a challenging work environment. No clear career path or room for advancement.

Management from the top levels is often inconsistent in word and action, providing ample motivation for good employees to leave
