Pros

GSK has competitive wages and compensation. They Strive to be professional in their dealings with personnel and the public. Their products are usually of high quality and offer unique advantages to patients.

Cons

GSK has become so large that they now place legal liability as their driving concern. Sales plans are now so restricted and ultra conservative that they seem written directly by the legal department. If you have to ask whether you can do something the answer in inevitably, "no, let's just be safe". Sales goals and compensation plans are also so one-size-fits-all that they can not adequately compensate for huge differences in marketplace demographics and trends. Better hope you work in a growing city in the south, especially Florida, if you want consistent bonus opportunities.

Pros

Strong work life balance ethic...though the overall equations seems to be changing in favour of work under the leadership of the new CEO.

Cons

Movement within the organization is almost impossible. Company has be in a constant reorg mode for the last 3 years...likely to continue. If you do not function well in uncertainty this is not the place for you.
