Vantaggi

Work life balance, Brand recognition, some interesting engineering challenges depending on the team.

Svantaggi

Little-to-no technically savvy managers, promotion of non-technical roles to engineering leadership roles, no promotions for technical personnel, low compensation, very little respect for direct contributors, almost no recognition of strong performers under poor managers. Very heavy on managers and light on leaders basically. They talk a good game, but when it comes to action, there is none. This is basically a great place to start out given the brand recognition and scale of problem sets, but there are no growth opportunities for engineers. Elsevier acquires technology - they don't build it.

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
