Pros
Super interesting work and great people. I have never loved my work or team as much as I did at Elsevier. Best managers I've had at any company. They really looked out for their team and I felt like they always had our backs.
Cons
Stealth layoffs / redundancies to avoid appearance of slashing a considerable part of the workforce. It was pretty common to hear "they keep disappearing people" whenever I was in the office. (I was one of the disappeared.) No in-seat promotions in many departments effectively stunts career growth beyond lateral moves.
