Vantaggi

The Science & Technology division are working on some interesting problems in digital scientific communication. There are many smart and interesting people.

Svantaggi

Vanishingly little investment in staff training, retention, and promotion. HR is devastatingly under-resourced, which means their only role is obstructionist and cost-control. No effort was made to retain or develop existing staff after big layoffs. Training is non-existent. Hiring managers can hire externally far easier than internally. Promotion of staff from line work to management are actively discouraged. Senior management spend huge effort to convince customers their big profits are justified but they haven't convinced employees.

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.

Vantaggi

-Great company -Team has talented, experienced account managers and product experts who know the territory well

Svantaggi

West team management is heavy on micromanagement and sets unrealistic territory targets without rep input — high turnover, and long tenure in company seems to shield this manager from accountability and growth
