For GSK, career development is about building experience and capability and is not defined solely by promotion and advancement.
The company offers learning opportunities, which include on-the-job experiences such as regular reviews with your manager; developmental relationships, which includes support and feedback through coaching, mentoring and feedback from managers and peers; and formal development, such as e-learning, coursework, classroom-style training, articles or books.

Encouraging employees to support causes
Employee volunteering is important to GSK. The company encourages its people to contribute to their local communities – and gives them plenty of support to do so.
GSK understands that volunteering helps employees gain new experiences and skills, plus, in many cases, a deeper understanding of patient needs.
Volunteering at GSK includes Orange Day, where employees get one paid day off each year to volunteer for a good cause, and the PULSE Volunteer Partnership, where employees are matched to a non-profit organisation for three or six months full-time, contributing their skills to solve healthcare challenges at home and abroad.
