Pros

The company provides flexibility, support, people are lovely The company provides a great opportunity to start your career outside academia

Cons

The salary is not accurate for the experience you hold, role and the work required. Very minimal salary adjustments every year. Growth is limited, to jump to next step in your career, you need to jump to a different role or department. If you do your work above and beyond, there is no guarantee you will get to the next step

Thanks for your review. Compensation is always a hot topic in any industry. Here, we benchmark our salaries externally, we use both a general benchmark and a role specific benchmark to ensure we stay competitive. Through organizational commitment, we take a combined approach to our people's growth and professional development strategies. We empower them to see RELX and our sister companies as well as Elsevier a huge job marketplace for them to explore.

Pros

-Great company -Team has talented, experienced account managers and product experts who know the territory well

Cons

West team management is heavy on micromanagement and sets unrealistic territory targets without rep input — high turnover, and long tenure in company seems to shield this manager from accountability and growth
