Elsevier named a “Best Place to Work for Working Daughters” (and sons). This award recognizes companies who support caregivers “beyond offering flex time and EAP”; here’s what our people are saying. When her mom fell and broke her hip last year, Susan Ikeda wasn’t ready. “I had been looking into finding her at-home care just the day before,” recalled Susan, a Senior Editorial Project Manager based in Elsevier’s San Diego, California, office: "I scrambled — the hospital was next, then skilled nursing, and then ... I wasn’t sure. I had so much to do..." Fortunately, Susan’s fears about work were soon allayed. "My manager supported me in ways I didn’t think possible — flextime, empowering me to cancel meetings, and helping me find support in Elsevier. I was so preoccupied with my mom that I didn’t think about checking all that Elsevier has to offer. " Elsevier offers a wide range of support for employees who are caregivers, from formal programs like Modern Family Leave to webinars for health and wellbeing.

“It felt like returning home”: Why I’ve come back to work at Elsevier. Three years ago, Jess Pritchard left Elsevier for a role at a large telecommunications company. It was an excellent opportunity for her to develop her skill set, but she missed the sense of purpose of working at Elsevier. As she explained: "I quickly discovered that I am mission-driven, and helping large corporations acquire telecommunications resources wasn’t inspiring for me." Jess, based in Philadelphia, rejoined Elsevier in 2020 as a Commercial Manager on the Clinical Solutions Commercial team. “It really felt like returning home,” she recalled...
How supporting Wikipedia editors is helping improve trust in science. Elsevier and the Wikimedia Foundation are collaborating to provide Wikipedia editors with trusted scientific content and training. Science is taking on the big issues the world is facing — climate change, COVID-19, plastic pollution — and those conversations help shape our behavior and therefore our contribution to the solutions. Wikipedia is a major source of the information people share, discuss and act on, with a significant cumulative impact on people and the planet. To support the dissemination of high-quality information, Elsevier started contributing to The Wikipedia Library in 2015. Providing active Wikipedia editors free access to articles on ScienceDirect helps ensure the content on Wikipedia is backed by rigorous, peer-reviewed scientific information.

Life as a software engineer at Elsevier. Elsevier Software Engineer, Alex Pope of Oxford, UK, writes about using cutting-edge technology in an Agile environment, with access to resources that help him continue his development. "Try turning it off and on again." So said Roy from The IT Crowd. For those unfamiliar with the British sitcom, it was a program about two technicians. Their day job involved much mindless repetition, but they also got themselves into various amusing scrapes. We’ve all been on projects like that, minus the amusement.
