Pros

Some really great people at all levels, work can be interesting when it's not tied up in endless layers of governance.

Cons

Extremely old fashioned management style. Massively complex and becoming more so. Little or no recognition for anyone. Bureaucratic and slow moving.

Pros

The vision, the mission, the people - for me, it's a perfect place to be. GSK has nearly 100,000 employees, but everyone I worked with was an actual person, a human being who cares about the patient at the end of the supply chain. It's a busy company to work for, with lots of activity which makes it fun and interesting.

Cons

Nothing, genuinely. Seems like a paid review but it's not.
