Latest review

First review round: 17.9 weeks. Overall rating: 0 (very bad). Outcome: Rejected.

Motivation:
We received a letter from the editor 4 months after the paper was submitted. The letter was saying that the article has not been evaluated favourable by the reviewers. We asked for the reviews, however, the editor refused to send them saying that the journal keeps the reviews confidential, which contradicts the Springer's Review Policy. After we connected Springer it turned out that this was desk rejection. It is impossible to check whether it really was, but even if it is, 4 months is too much time for desk rejection.
