Pros

The people below the VP level - that is about it. The older executives that have been "real" GSK folks generally care about people and have interest in others developing and the greater good of the patient.

Cons

The new executives (VP+) moving in (mostly from Lilly) are motivated by power and carnage without any concern for employees, selling drugs or helping patients. Too many people for the number of products. Focus is on checking boxes rather than innovation Legal oversight has paralyzed the employee Have to get everyone's approval before you go to the bathroom - too much micro-management. Sucks the life out of innovation! Negative culture with everyone unhappy
