Business outlook
Pros
Promotions are mostly from within. Peers are delightful to work with. Company is very stable with over 9000 employees international. Major sites for employment are Philadelphia, St Louis, New York and Atlanta. Sales professionals can work from home. Elsevier fosters a learning culture and community involvement. Content is great Great holidays, 2 week vacation, sick days
Cons
Content outshines lagging technology capabilities. Less than average salaries with PDP used to control salary growth. Electronic side of publishing business is growing at double digit while print side not so much. Concerns of pricing as relating to electronic products not in step with client needs.
