Thank you for your review. We offer competitive rates plus an array of great benefits. Compensation is always a hot topic in any industry. Here at Elsevier, we benchmark our salaries externally, we use both a general benchmark and a technology-specific benchmark to ensure we stay competitive. Our turnover rate is lower than that of our competitors.
