AOR is getting more and more unreliable now. I specialize in supply chain management. When I submitted my first paper, it took almost 10 months for the editor to respond, and only after I followed up twice. They said they couldn't find any reviewers, so I withdrew my paper to graduate on time. Eventually, I submitted to a journal in Zone 2, and it got accepted after 7 months. Recently, I submitted to a special issue of AOR, and it went under review after just 1 week. But it's been 8 months now, and there's been no feedback. I tried reaching out once, but got no response. Are the reviewers dead after 8 months? I won't be submitting to this journal again. My two experiences with submitting to AOR have been very dissatisfying. If you want to graduate or get evaluated, please think twice before submitting!

This journal is really slow. I submitted it two years ago and it has been under review ever since. You must have a lot of patience to submit to this journal

Submitted in early November, and then waited for three months for review with an editor. Unable to wait any longer, I wrote a letter urging them to review. A day later, the editor replied rejecting the submission, saying they could not determine the quality of the paper and that it did not fit the scope of the journal. I could only laugh

The processing speed of this journal is very slow now. Please do not submit if there is no suitable special issue

I submitted a special issue when I saw it, and about half a month after "with editor" it became "Reviews Completed". Sigh

Classmate, have you received a reply? I also have a report on a company that I am very worried about

I have an article about a company in my hands, but I've submitted too many times and keep getting rejected. What should I do? I'm going crazy

Hello, I've been in the "with editor for review" status ever since I returned for repair. It has been over two months now and I'm getting impatient. What was the situation like when you returned for repair?

Forget it, I don't recommend investing. It can make people go crazy waiting.

Hello, may I ask how you feel about submitting to the special issue? Is the requirement high? Is the review process fast?

Why hasn't anyone shared the process of submitting contributions on Youyou recently? Is everyone's process too long?

Let's look at each field. IJPR is good in the supply chain area, but average in the operations and maintenance direction. ANOR is quite good in the operations and maintenance field, but there is indeed some gap compared to EJOR, especially in terms of management significance, the gap is not small.

Exaggerated, if I could invest in ijpr, I wouldn't choose anor. The difference with ejor is still quite significant.

Posted in early August 2022, it took 7 months and underwent two revisions (with 3 reviewers, the first being major and the second being minor) before acceptance. The journal is well-regarded in the field of management and operations research, with a reputation higher than IJPR but slightly lower than EJOR. The journal has high requirements for model innovation, so those with well-written papers are encouraged to give it a try.

I have been with the editor for five months as well, and I am preparing to write a reminder letter.

It has been 9 months since the manuscript submission without any news. They do not respond to email reminders. Everyone should be cautious when considering submitting to this journal, as their efficiency is extremely low.

Brother, I feel really unlucky. They rejected me in just half a month.

May I ask if the original poster has any contact with the editor? It has been four months without finding the editor's contact information for review.

This journal is very irresponsible; it has been over a year since I submitted my manuscript, and they haven't even reviewed it yet. More than a year later, they pretended to recommend transferring it to another journal. I don't understand where they get their confidence from. I suggest boycotting this journal entirely. I have submitted twice, and both times had extremely slow submission periods.

No review comments, no feedback even after 6 months under review. It is advised that everyone should carefully consider submitting their work.
