fair compensation for the industry - Anonymous employee GSK Employee Review

Over the years, I found the company to be less transparent with their directions in regards to marketing the products and long term plans with marketing and sales of the brands. With the many FDA related issues pertaining to our products in the last several years, I found the company to be less open with the reasonings behind their decisons and strategies. Being an ethical pharmaceutical giant, head office has many policies on sales activites which regulates the sales staff in conducting business within the ethical pharma guidelines. However, these policies were not being followed by the staff mainly because pressures from the competition within and outside the company. The spirit of the ethical code is lost with the company.
