What does LexisNexis Want To Be When It Grows Up?

Pros

Talented people make this company a great place to work. For the most part, everyone you come into contact with is willing to lend a hand or point you in the right direction. People behind the scenes are brilliant despite having to pass off their work to people who don't know what to do with it, or break it. These days benefits in general are hard to find. LexisNexis is old style in their package offerings but every year you're being urged to go with another provider or change up something else. Still, I have no real complaints even though I know of other companies offering much more attractive benefits. Simple to use products. There's really nothing to using them, and the company makes oodles of profit that they use to throw department get togethers, meetings, parties, etc.

Cons

The compensation is inequitable. From base salaries to variables to bonuses to increases, I soon got the feeling many were either "in the know" or tossed into the "left to wither" groups. Favoritisim is rapant and what's bothersome is it's out in the open. Those who are favored don't see it and that's unnerving. The bright wrapper LexsNexis puts forth to the world is also bothersome. They spent many dollars on rebranding some time ago but the company and its products today are disjointed and unappealing. Tell someone who owns a business to call our main number from the website and find someone to talk to about their risk mitigation needs. If it happens at all, it might be after a week of calling, transfers, dropped calls, wrong departments and utter ignorance. The face of LexisNexis is bizzare. There is a clear line break between every segement of the worker bees here. Only certain people can talk to certain departments, only people with direct access to senior managers can bring new ideas to the table and the distribution of accounts every year is saddening. Talk about the have and the have nots! There's plenty on both sides here!

Pros

Work - Life balance is recognized by most junior execs. The parent org (Reed Elsevier) seems to have a tight control on the benefits - this is very positive. Benefits and 401k are the best in town!

Cons

Most middle level and senior execs have a condescending attitude towards junior associates and leaders. Can't break into other areas and most senior leaders are hesitant, if not afraid, to let their people explor new opportunities internally. Very secretive of the plans - one never knows how secure they really are in their role or the organization. Even senior managers cannot guarantee in good faith if their subordinates will be around or if they'll get caught up in the next round of synergies.
