Good company

Pros

Good products, and a sound and successful strategy. Lots of international job opportunities. Flexible working hours. Smart and passionate colleagues.

Cons

Bureaucracy can be frustrating. Micro management is everywhere. Departments still work in silo's. But not unlike any other large multi national company.

Rough Acquisition Transition

Pros

There is a lot to learn at Elsevier. I feel like I have gained about three years of experience in the past year. The financial rigor has pushed me to pick up lots of new skills that I will certainly be able to take with me in my next positions. There are also many, many talented individuals who are absolute experts in their fields.

Cons

Senior management is much more concerned with making the finances look good than with actually growing the business. They do much more talking than listening.

Marketing/Event Management

Recommend

Pros

Co-workers become your family, fun travel destinations. Entry level positions have room to advance quickly. Veteran employees are what is keeping the event teams together.

Cons

Culture is awful, no one is motivated, senior management recognizes the problem but does nothing to address it. Benefits are reduced/eliminated every year while more work is piled on without additional support. No work life balance.
