Pros

A very friendly working environment where everyone counts regardless of one's background. At GSK you are made to feel special.

Cons

Fortunately, there is none at this point of time and I hope it will stay that way.

Pros

Flexible working arrangements, smart people, great benefits.

Cons

If you are an NC-based employee, the carousel of people leaving is never-ending as R&D is moved to Philadelphia. Atmosphere in the building is terrible and it is sad to see a place decay after so many good years in North Carolina. The amount of experience GSK let walk out the door is shocking. Senior management doesn't care though. Emma Walmsley is about as fake and uninspiring as, well, I don't know what. She is the opposite to Andrew Witty, who made me proud to be an employee. Long history of senior managers making terrible decisions and then getting promoted and not having to face the fallout from their decisions (hope you are reading this Moncef).
