Vantaggi
At Elsevier sales teams receive two main benefits: - low pressure when it comes to numbers - great work life balance (depending on your manager)
Svantaggi
- if you want to grow you’ll receive a lot of pushback as there’s no clear path created internally on how you can advance - middle managers are not trained to have the personal development conversations with the teams - the middle management consists of mostly white Dutch man (Elsevier Amsterdam office) who are comfortable with having their teams stable, not promoting or changing anything - the sales teams consist of mostly older employees who are comfortable in their roles and aren’t there to innovate but to have a stable job. Last point is not necessarily bad, but depends on where you are in your career. If you need a stable, chill, and non-ambitious environment Elsevier will fit you.
