Pros

Elsevier operates in a stable market and is very employee centric. I began working with them after they acquired my company and I feel like I’ve ended up in good hands.

Cons

Big ships turn slow and that is certainly the case with Elsevier. They are slow to adopt new tactics and adjust to trends. They also operate lean and if not for the culture I’d certainly be looking for equivalent jobs with more competitive pay.
