Pros

Part of the larger Relx group, which potentially open up opportunities to move around if you're able to get through the hurdles.

Cons

Management is a good boy network. Opportunities are created and extended to the same people over and over again regardless of poor performance in current or past roles. Many in leadership are in over their heads and seem to not have the experience or background to be effective in their roles. Health benefits are dictated by Relx and are vastly more expensive than they should be for a company the size of Relx compared to other companies. Pay is below market rate where many offices are located, making it difficult to attract and hold onto quality individuals.
