Social Responsibility, Incredible Science and Great Place to Work
Senior Scientist (Former Employee), Waltham, MA – March 27, 2013
Pros: excellent science, strong sense of transparency, social responsibility and development of staff
Cons: slightly lacking in skilled scientific managers
I loved working here and would go back in a heartbeat. Excellent science, high-value placed on innovation, creativity and pushing boundaries, failure is an option, fluidic structure and approaches, recognition of achievements, just all around a great place to work.
GSK spends a lot of time and money developing their corporate culture as well and loves – more... it when people get involved. There is a huge value placed on social responsibility in the company and it shows. One example is Orange Day. It's like a vacation day to do volunteer work in your community. Every employee gets one and is highly encouraged to use them. If you organize a group, you can get a budget. When I worked there, I organized a group to help a special needs camp prepare for their season. With 20 or so people I got a multi-thousand dollar budget to pay for supplies and make improvements to the camp. I left the company two years ago and I still organize this Orange Day, and still get a budget....crazy... – less
