Pros

Some of the best reasons for working at Elsevier would include: many opportunities for career advancement and movement, fantastic benefits, a committed and hardworking group of employees, and the ability to learn and interact with colleagues / professionals from all over the world.

Cons

Some of the downsides of working at Elsevier would include: the politics of a big company, large volume of responsibilities with average (at best) compensation, low margins for yearly salary increases, and the extended lengths of time that it can take to get things done (but I guess that also relates back to company politics).
