Pros

GSK used to be the best in the industry. Now they are at the bottom. I used to be so proud to work for them, but no more. They are using their ridiculous Patient First test scores to get force out long term successful sales reps to save money and then hire contract reps to replace them. They are no longer putting money into their pipeline, but instead are just buying the molecule from another company.

Cons

There is no respect for the field sales rep. GSK blames the rep for all of their woes and even though the rep works intensely with long hours to get the job done, there is still no respect. My manager lied constantly to make herself look good. She was late on anything administrative and was never there to help like managers in the past. She just didn't do her job. When the generic Advair comes in 2016 there will be severe layoffs. Their motto TRIP, Transparency, Respect, Integrity with a Patient Focus is a big joke and is no longer practiced here. You can't even breathe due to the stress and lies implemented by management.

Pros

Benefits package is really great

Cons

Management seems to be more about how they can promote themselves then in providing opportunities/advancements for others. An entire site is treated like a red-headed step-child because they were once 'the other company' even though the merger was almost 14 years ago.
