      Pros

      Extremely talented and dedicated employees. While leadership may struggle or change, the people working every day do so with strength and commitment.

      Cons

      Underneath the immediate challenges, it remains difficult to get ahead. The organization is flattening, limiting opportunities for promotion. Lateral moves are encouraged to gain experience but your salary is not adjusted as you do.

      My work experience with GSK was great until the last 5 years.

      Pros

      GSK gives you exceptional training and the industry standard benefits. The company stresses patients are first in everything that they do.

      Cons

      GSK does not have good work- life balance. The compensation is not good. Compensation and performance are not based on how well you sell your products. Compensation and performance are based on mangers ratings, timed test that require you type in all of your answers and simulations that are done over the phone. GSK has made a VERY STRESSFULL environment for its field employees to work in. I know several employees in the field and not one is happy working for GSK.

      Pros

      Overall people at GSK are good! Enjoyed everyone I worked with. Not a lot of career options currently and R&D product pipeline does not appear to doing what was expected.

      Cons

      Big company, lots of office politics. If you don't get moved up early, you probably have missed the boat.Your job satisfaction is as good as your manager.
