      Stagnant tech and Poor career progression

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Scrum and Kanban followed. Not best practice but efforts are being made to improve this. - Environment gradually becoming more relaxed and creative. - You will gain experience in legacy codebases, frameworks and processes....

      Cons

      - Promotions and progression are not well managed whatsoever within technology. Unless you get chummy with upper management, it ain't gonna happen. - Role "levels" (I, II, III, Senior, etc) only represent what you're paid, not how much you're valued or level of contribution or responsibilities. No one really knows how to get from one to the other. - Turnover in technology is very high, mainly due to the above points. - The tech stack is sold with keywords like "docker", "laravel", "PHP7", when in reality only a minority of the tech stack lives up to this. Prepare yourself for legacy codebases, ancient frameworks where the "technology roadmap" (which no one seems to be able to locate) includes upgrading some time in the future, and virtually no CI/CD. - Manual processes and meetings will fill your day. - Decision making is often top down, which conflicts with the Agile process and stifles creativity. - Technology department is vastly underpaid compared with other departments. In a team of 3-8, most of which developers, the product owner is often paid 3 times that of a single developer. In some cases, this reaches 6 figures.

      Slow, ponderous dinosaur of a company

      Anonymous employee

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Most of the people are competent and willing. They want to do a good job for clients.

      Cons

      The amount of overhead and cost that exists due to the Americans' need to control everything is stifling the businesses ability to deliver. The list includes onerous and ridiculous reporting requirements, and rubbish support systems - the interfaces are very 1988; it's embarrassing.

      Pros

      RELX prides itself in “doing the right thing”. The culture within LNRS is respectful, and internal surveys show a high degree of employee satisfaction. More than a just a job, RELX offers you an opportunity to grow as a person. Sales leadership is effective, and quota is attainable. The products within both the F&I and FCC segment are competitive. The company puts the emphasis on training, and ex-LNRS sales alumni are well regarded within the industry. LexisNexis Risk Solutions is the favorite child of the RELX family and benefits from more advantages than its counterparts, and opportunities of advancement are possible via internal promotions. Overall, I’m extremely happy with my decision to join LNRS.

      Cons

      LNRS grew rapidly but inorganically, via a series of acquisitions without vision. Successful integrations of acquired companies have been rocky and inconsistent, leading to frustration for both clients and sales alike. The increase in the headcount from this growth also led to its own challenges, with Operations throwing people at the problem rather than improving efficiency. A significant part of your time as sales will be spent on trying to understand your compensation, following poorly documented processes or explaining your client’s billing. Customer Success is difficult mainly due to legacy software (MBS for billing and PCT for contracts come to mind) or a lack of software altogether (no Outreach nor Salesloft). The internal sales process is also unnecessarily complicated, with multiple departments implicated in deals (Market Planning, Overlay, Pre-Sales and PS just to name a few). To succeed in LNRS, you need good organizational skills.
