Nielsen reviews

Multiple restructures and rounds of layoffs over the past two years. Teams are understaffed, overworked and Senior leadership doesn’t provide a clear vision or direction.

Nielsen does not invest in their employees or our equipment. Our work computers are 7+ years old and constantly over heating and crashing. They don't update the tools we use so we are stuck using an outdated version of excel to do all of our job functions. There's unlimited PTO and you're allowed to take days off, but when you do you're expected to make up that work so time off just feels like procrastination and isn't relaxing. There's constant pressure not to miss deadlines. Overtime is expected the days leading up to deliverables, sometimes on past 10pm. In addition to your analyst job, you're expected to take part in initiatives to "stand out" among the other analysts. Growth is stagnant and they keep using COVID as an excuse even though these last 2 quarters were their most profitable in the company's history. It's crazy they announce that and then deny your entire department any kind of annual raises or promotions. They won't promote unless you've been there for years, but they make you work the next level up without any increase of salary to "prove" you deserve the position "one day". Management does not respect work life balance. They message you way after and before work hours and you're expected to hop back on at their beck and call.
