Vantaggi
Employer that tries to do the right thing as a whole. A lot of guidelines and documentation as in place to guide the ways of workings. Can be fun and energetic at times.
Svantaggi
Depending on which department you could have very different work life balance. Bureaucratic and mostly led by UK leads. In theory, GSK is supposed to be an inclusive culture. But in Malaysia, it's not practised. Hiring managers still hire based on gender, marriage status etc. Not walking the talk - local HR need to bridge GSK values closer to change local practices. Otherwise it's really just hypocrisy. Observed a rather unjust treatment of a recent Finance outsourcing in which the employees were not offered any choice of retrenchment package but rather 'forced' to accept placements at outsourcing company. Legal loopholes perhaps?
