Pros
They provide great benefits. There are many different areas of the company to work in and move too if you aren't satisfied with your current position. It was a great place to learn different areas of the pharmaceutical business from marketing, product development to manufacturing. The former Glaxo facilities were nice places to work while the former Burroughs buildings were very old.
Cons
The company is going through major restructuring (ie downsizing). They tend to promote people who are good at doing the work to be the manager of the department. Those individuals tend to be inadequate managers. They used to have a technical track to allow individual contributers to be promoted and move ahead, however, it was dissolved.
