Thank you for your review. We are pleased to hear that we have great benefits and that we provide the opportunity for our employees to travel. However, sorry to know that you felt employee development did not meet your expectations and that you felt you weren’t listened to when you were in our organisation. It’s is regrettable that you couldn’t communicate these frustrations while you were with Elsevier. We take them seriously and will discuss how to improve things should we find that the points raised here resonate with our current employees in the same role. We aim to provide a great work environment for all and would welcome the opportunity to learn more about your specific experience. If you’re willing to elaborate on these points, please reach me at elseviergdrev@elsevier.com
