Pros

As with all large orgs, your day to day experience will largely depend on your immediate team and division. Generally safe to assume WLB and flexibility. High concentration of highly educated and competent colleagues.

Cons

Pay and benefits combined with consistent refusal to work towards any version of salary transparency. The WLB comes at the cost of subpar compensation. Promotions are extremely difficult to obtain, even for "high performers." This was the main factor that caused me to move on.

Thank you for your review. Compensation is always a hot topic in any industry. At Elsevier, we benchmark our salaries externally using both a general benchmark and a Technology-specific benchmark to ensure we stay competitive.

Managers are known to respect work/life balance; great pipeline of high quality innovative products; inclusive culture; competitive salaries. Many resources available for mentoring and skills development.

Cons

Limited opportunities to advance quickly; employees don’t get promoted right away but there are opportunities to learn and obtain diverse experience.

Thanks for leaving your review. We benchmark our salaries externally to ensure we stay competitive. We offer competitive rates plus an array of great benefits. We want you to feel empowered, and we encourage our people to discuss their workload with their managers at their weekly or biweekly one-on-one meetings. We encourage you to do the same.
