Thanks for sharing your experience after several years as a Software Engineer in Raleigh. It’s great to hear that work–life balance and supportive colleagues stood out. Those day-to-day interactions and flexibility can make a real difference over time. You’ve touched on how team dynamics and growth visibility can shape the experience. In a business like ours, where teams work across different products and domains, experiences can vary, but that also reflects the range of opportunities available. Engineers here work with large-scale, deeply connected datasets and content that span legal, business, and regulatory domains, which creates a lot of scope to move between projects and build new skills over time. Growth often comes through that exposure, by taking on new challenges, contributing across teams, and expanding ownership, supported by mentoring, learning resources, and internal mobility. The team environment plays a big role in how that shows up day to day, and strong collaboration is something many teams continue to build on. Thank you again for the contribution you made during your time with us, and we wish you all the best in what comes next.

It’s wonderful to read that your experience at LexisNexis included strong work–life balance and good management. From a Senior Data Scientist’s perspective, that combination matters a lot, especially in work that requires focus, collaboration, and room to solve complex problems well. You also touched on compensation, which is an area we approach with structure and care. Pay decisions are guided by external market data, internal role alignment, performance, and the scope of each role. We also look at total rewards more broadly, including incentive opportunities and long-term financial wellbeing resources where they apply, so colleagues are supported beyond base salary alone. The work of our Data Science teams helps power trusted information, analytics, and AI-driven workflows used by customers in high-stakes settings. We’re glad the culture and management support made a positive impression during your time here. Thank you for your contributions to LexisNexis, and all the best in your next chapter!

Pros

PTO, colleagues that became great friends

Cons

untamable sales goals, never having your goals on time, terrible benefits, terrible raises if you got one at all, comp plans are terrible, your goals would go up, but your percentage of pay would go down. The better you did in sales, the next each your goals would increase significantly. Making it harder and harder to reach your goals year after year. Someone would leave the company, get fired or retire, that work gets piled onto you and there is no compensation for it. More work, less pay.

After more than a decade with LexisNexis in Sales, your perspective carries real weight. It is good to hear that your immediate manager and the friendships you built with colleagues stood out during your time here. Your review also raises an important part of the sales experience: how goals, rewards, account ownership, and leadership support come together over time. In our sales teams, clarity and consistency matter. We continue to work toward a more unified sales framework that gives sellers stronger processes, more useful account insights, and better operational support. Compensation is reviewed using market data and internal role alignment, with decisions shaped by role scope, performance, and business context. For sales roles, that also includes performance-based incentives as part of the broader total rewards approach. The work our sales teams do directly supports customers across law, business, and government, and strong customer relationships remain central to how we operate. Your decade of service represents a significant contribution to LexisNexis and to the customers you supported. Thank you for the role you played while you were here, and we wish you continued success in what comes next.
