Pros

Excellent work life balance and very good pay. The majority of management is open to ideas and offers advice when needed.

Cons

GSK is moving a majority of their IT staff out of US. More layoffs starting soon. New employee stack ranking system designed to give smaller bonuses and force competition between employees. This is the exact rating system that Microsoft just abolished, the so-called, Rank-and-Yank. I would say it was to weed out the bottom 10% of employees, if they hadn't already laid so many people off. I believe it is to help relieve the company of more US/UK employees so GSK does not have to give them a severance package as they continue to eliminate jobs in US/UK and hire in other countries.
