Pros
Well known and respected company. Good people who are willing to share their experience. Very succesful transition of business models, from a traditional print only publishing house to a world class Online publisher. I believed the Compensation to be very competitive, it has never been a bottleneck for me, especially when taking into account the other benefits like vacation days, ATV, etc.
Cons
Leadership of Elsevier transitioned from common sense and healthy judgement into a cold calculated share houlders value model with the current management. Major overhauling took place in the Finance department mainly due to issues with "new" CFO. High turnover specifically in Finance
