Good pension package especially for longer term employees

Review from Product Dept · Posted 4 days ago

grocery tickets is the best part

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 7 days ago

I feel it is somewhat in line with the market range.

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 7 days ago

Transparent and market driven compensation

Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 7 days ago

The compensation package is competitive and provides good financial stability, with a fair balance of fixed pay and additional benefits.

Review from IT Dept · Posted 7 days ago

The fair base salary that provides a stable baseline for the role.

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 7 days ago

The Annual bonus every year.

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 7 days ago

At present, I don't feel there is a particular aspect of the compensation package that stands out as a significant benefit for me.

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 8 days ago

The Vales de Despensa are great, the brut salary is competitive and the seguro medico de gastos mayores is very important to me

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 8 days ago

company car, health insurance is reasonably priced

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 8 days ago

Holistically good with annual bonus and the increment as per the revenue growth of Elsevier.

Review from Product Dept · Posted 8 days ago

Maybe that I am fairly paid by this organisation

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 8 days ago

saving funds and the extra salary for sales

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 8 days ago

Here in MX, compensation package is above what stated in the law. We are provided with full health and life insurance, and dental and optical discounts.

Review from IT Dept · Posted 9 days ago

It's a toss up between the Share Care benefits that encourage us to live healthier, and the ROTH 401K Match!

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 9 days ago

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

The increase in salary yearly as increment

Review from Executive Dept · Posted 2 days ago

I feel my compensation does not fully reflect my growing responsibilities, workload, and contributions. A fair salary review aligned with my performance, experience, and market standards would help me feel more valued and motivated.

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 7 days ago

The pay scale needs to be considerably revised to match the current economic times and steep increase in workload

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 7 days ago

We are working on double shifts almost everyday due to high workload

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 7 days ago

I have an advanced degree and bring a large amount of knowledge but do not believe I am paid what that is worth. I would feel better if I were paid more. Some aspects of the benefits also seem unnecessarily penalizing, such as paying an extra, recurring fee for a spouse to access healthcare.

Review from Product Dept · Posted 8 days ago

As AI adoption and Spec-Driven Development (SDD) reshape how work gets done, leadership should redefine role responsibilities and job levels to reflect the capabilities employees can bring with AI tools.

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 8 days ago

The salary increase associated with each performance rating should be reviewed and enhanced, particularly for employees receiving ratings between 1 and 3, to ensure meaningful differentiation and recognition. The service milestone reward provided upon completion of 5 or 10 years with the organizati

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 8 days ago

The salary is at or below the market average for my role and the benefits are very limited.

Review from IT Dept · Posted 9 days ago

Compensation has not been adequately adjusted in several years. 401k benefits were reduced, and healthcare costs continue to rise.

Review from Product Dept · Posted 9 days ago

because my workload is bigger than the one my position should be doing

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 9 days ago

Not enough recognition about my work and also lack of visibility.

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 9 days ago

My pay is below market average for my role. As AI champion I've driven AI adoption and measurable productivity gains, which isn't reflected in my pay. A salary adjustment to market level and a higher pension contribution would help.

Review from Product Dept · Posted 9 days ago

When compared to industry range and the regional roles

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 9 days ago

I think we are not paid on the market standards

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 10 days ago

Promotions are not given at right time.

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 10 days ago

401k match and higher pay

Review from Design Dept · Posted 10 days ago

The change in the employer portion of the 401k payment to annually vs per pay was very disappointing.

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 10 days ago

My position has changed significantly in the last few years, and all signs point to more change. My compensation should be adjusted to reflect the additional responsibilities and risks that I shoulder for Elsevier.

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 10 days ago

We don't have many benefits in Colombia. Any company partnership with banks or anything like that would be good :)

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 10 days ago

My salary is lower than my colleagues with similar experience. Promotion rate is slow - noone of my colleagues was promoted for years. We should involve better people and support employees staying loyal to company better. We should encrease payment 30% to make it more attractive. Perks@work is waste
