Elsevier reviews

We were a small privately run company of under 100 employees until Elsevier took over. We've lost a third of employees to attrition for the toxic workplace environment and mistrust created by the Managing Director. We've seen new hires walk right the job without notice because of the toxic workplace environment. Nobody trusts the Managing Director as we've witnessed direct targeting and abuse of employees under her leadership directive. We've known an aged employee forced into retirement. The Managing Director tries to sweep her actions under the rug thinking nobody's paying attention to her mistreatment of employees. She denies it but we've seen it. The Managing Director practices double standards, favoritism, creating poor employee relations. Morale is at rock bottom. We've seen the Managing Director promote her friend to run the client services department, although that entire department had vocal concerns when the Managing Director talked with them. She still promoted her friend, uncaring of those employees' concerns. Co-Workers are leaving at an alarming rate with the uncertain future and toxic cutthroat workplace. Nobody trusts HR to go to as they are not out for us. We've got a choice to leave this toxic workplace for other jobs or to Unionize for protection against this poor management Elsevier has in place.
