Pros

I don't have any! I enjoyed the people but in general too much management overseeing...very little independence. I found that when we worked as teams people were able to do little work and rest on the laurels of others.

Cons

I would say the downside to working at GlakySmithKline was the inability to progress upward in terms of job opportunities.

Pros

You'll find good people at Franklin Plaza in Philadelphia. Employees are ethical and strive to be fully compliant to FDA regulations. A strategic focus dominates business operations.

Cons

Strategically strong, culturally weak. Morale has been battered by external issues such as Avandia and by never-ending corporate restructuring. Building is an absolute dump.

Pros

Great place. Good compensationa nd benefits. Best training I ever had for sales.

Cons

You are just a number. Bad economic time you will be cut. You do two ride alongs with your boss a month; which is fine. But if your numbers for the week are bad then he will be on your butt aboout it. Micromanaging. Business doesnt always have to be threw the roof.
