Vantaggi
If a permanent GSK employee, amazing company to work for. Salary and perks amazing, as is occupational health support etc. Training provision is excellent as is training courses such as NEBOSH etc for personal development.
Svantaggi
Agency staff treated appallingly, if you want to progess within GSK it seems to help if you have that ability to belittle and bully the employees. Rife throughout with certain members of the SLT and even above site level staff responsible for Primary operations. Certain people promise you the world on commencement of employment and then sit and revel when a role you have to perform after little or no training fails to generate the desired outcome. Worse is the fact that these people know how to arrive at the desired result, but make themselves appear to be too busy to offer guidance and support. Leaving you with the feeling failure and incompetence! Plenty of coasters onsite who are simply waiting on the proverbial golden egg hatching as they hit the magical retirement age. These people stifle the change process and merely place unnecessary obstacles in your path, coupled with weak line management who continue to endorse this continual type of behaviour. Once you annoy one SLT member the chances of ever getting back on to the site are remote, similar for any other site due to the malicious falsehoods that are communicated to other hiring managers.
