Great colleagues but a negative corporate culture

Pros

For the most part, the people who work there are smart and dedicated and great colleagues.

Cons

Leaders and managers do not seem to value employees and do not support work-life balance. They value speed more than accuracy.

Pros

I had some of the best work experiences while working for Elsevier. We had a great team and I met some of my best friends while there. The company culture is just phenomenal, unlike anything I've experienced since. It's fast-paced and I learned a lot.

Cons

Compensation was just plain awful. Management was on the micro-managing side.
