Pluspunten

Good benefits, 401k matching, and flex-time —if you feel comfortable taking time off. They support volunteering and are always doing something to raise money for charities

Minpunten

Sweatshop, no organization, and micromanaged from the top. They don’t care about their people. People who have been there for awhile are leaving faster than they can hire, they are speaking up about why, but no one is listening.

Thank you for this balanced and thoughtful review. We're glad to hear that our benefits and investment in people are making a positive impact, those are commitments we take seriously. On the process feedback: Leadership is actively reviewing operational workflows, and the advice to listen more closely to employee feedback is something we're holding ourselves accountable to. If you're open to it, we'd encourage you to bring specific examples forward through your team or people and culture contacts. Change is most effective when it's grounded in the real experiences of the people doing the work, and that means you. Feel free to reach out to us at elseviergdrev@elsevier.com to provide more information Thank you for staying engaged and for caring enough to share this. It matters.

Pluspunten

Decent benefits, reasonable job security and mobility

Minpunten

Management is a mess. They are constantly shuffling around leadership and department/reporting structures, and it has serious ramifications on morale and cross-function collaboration. I was a part of a well oiled machine for many years until Elsevier acquired our product and pretty much ruined everything that was great about within 5 years. Their priorities have not aligned with customer needs, and it became increasingly difficult to provide value to our customers. Elsevier provides more roadblocks than solutions from a product management perspective.
