Pros

Benefits such as health insurance, dental, pension, etc Most of the employees are good hardworking people that want to do the right thing.

Cons

Inflexible Inconsistent Not family friendly I'm not sure who keeps voting for GSK as one of the Best Places to Work...it must be HR, because it most certainly is not. Does not understand work-life balance. Limited promotion and advancement opportunities Toxic environment due to continuous layoffs....the morale is very bad in the company.

Pros

Above-average compensation and benefits pkg. Depending upon the area of business, telecommuting is encouraged.

Cons

Communication is poor. Sr. mgmt ignores workers in the trenches. Many of the fringe benefits--e.g. childcare subsidy; quality cafeteria/fitness centers--have been taken away completely or are of exceptionally poor quality. Work/life balance is constantly talked about, but not actually encouraged (i.e. ongoing layoffs have resulted in fewer people doing more work and, thus, working long hours, including many weekends).
