Pros

Great global company - mission and values at heart of organisation. Andrew Witty is a great leader. Company taking steps in the right direction in last few years- mergers/programmes/partnerships. Lots to enjoy about work - good development opportunities and perks to be there.

Cons

Head office can be a bit out of touch with other sites. Some people worked there for years and get by with not doing much. Sometimes frustrating / slow decision making.

Pros

Great People, great work life balance. Varied work and great at empowering employees to take ownership of tasks, projects, etc. Truly global organisation with the opportunity to collaborate with colleague all around the world. The have an excellent benefits package, one of the best for a FTSE 100. HQ in Brentford is an impressive building with great canteen, restaurant, bike shop. They even have a hair dressers!

Cons

Lots of changes in recent years with a lot of outsourcing so lots of good people being made redundant, presumably due to cost savings, however, this is inevitable for most large organisations these day and GSK provides a good redundancy package.
