Not a lot of micro managing. Good vacation and 401k benefits. Flexibility for time off. Get to work with educators and students.

Cons

Elsevier is way behind it's competitors technology wise. Rolled out two software products that didn't work. Not up to speed with the delivery of content. Salary extremely low. Compensation plan is terrible. Medical benefits go up a lot every year. Not a lot of advancement

Pros

Great colleagues, company reputation, annual sales meetings all around the world! The products are very technical and it means you’re always learning and being challenged.

Cons

Very big organization- not always good communication between departments, work in sales matrix where multiple people are involved with your customer. Can be conflicting and annoying.
