    What’s it like working at Elsevier?

    AI summary of recent reviews

    Employees at Elsevier appreciate the good work/life balance and efforts to keep staff involved, as well as the autonomy given while collaborating across business units. The company's unique mission focused on science and health and merit-based development opportunities are also positives.

    However, some potential challenges include issues with management at various levels, including a terrible sales manager, management styles of local leaders, and lack of clear direction. Additionally, the workload can be high at times, and there are limited local advancement opportunities, though international roles may be available.
