Pros

GSK takes care of their employees. Great benefits and respect work life balance. They also have a year end shut down in addition to vacation where the company shuts down at the end of the year for about a week.

Cons

There was significant restructuring that took place every year I was woth GSK that included layoffs. They had also changed the comp plan that was based a lot on subjective matter and it was difficult for a sales person to adjust to.
