Thanks for sharing your experience. It’s great to see a 5-star review, especially alongside your note that work-life balance and team dynamics have been strong parts of your experience. Those two things matter a lot in Data Science roles, where the work depends on focus, collaboration, and room to solve complex problems well. You also touched on compensation and advancement, which are important parts of the employee experience. At LexisNexis, pay decisions are informed by external market data, role scope, performance, and business context, with the goal of keeping a structured and consistent approach across the business. Growth can also take different forms here, from expanded responsibilities and cross-functional work to mentoring, role-specific learning, and movement across teams or functions over time. Your work helps shape AI-powered tools and trusted insights used by professionals across law, business, and government. Thank you for what you’re contributing and for sharing both what’s working well and where the experience can keep improving.

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.
