2wThank you for your long-term commitment to Elsevier and for sharing your perspective candidly. We respect the experience behind this feedback. Eight or more years gives real insight into how an organisation operates over time, including where it falls short. The concerns you've raised around leadership visibility, accountability, and connection to teams and customers are themes we take seriously, and we won't dismiss them as isolated views.
That said, we'd also gently note that leadership structure and decision-making are complex areas that are actively evolving, and we recognise that positive change can feel slower on the ground than it appears from above. That gap in perception is itself something leadership needs to own and address.
We encourage you to bring this feedback into more direct conversations where it can be acted on, whether through leadership forums, HR channels, or team-level discussions. Reviews like this matter, but the most durable change happens through sustained dialogue. If you prefer, feel free to reach out to us at elseviergdrev@elsevier.com to provide more information.
We appreciate your continued investment in the organisation.
