      Pros

      benefits are mostly on par.

      Cons

      the only way Nielsen finds "productivity" is with headcount. 10% year over year eventually chops into talent pool.

      Panic w/Coronavirus Yet Nielsen Wants Me Going Door to Door

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Company Car Benefits Flexible Schedule Getting hired here is easy as you don't need a college degree.

      Cons

      So I am ready the news with headlines such as "Top Doc: 10 Times More Deadly Than the Flu" and "X-Rays Show Terrifying Damage in Lungs of Victim" yet Nielsen is requiring me to go knock on doors all day to homes of complete strangers. While responsible decision makers are closing schools, cancelling events and asking office employees to work from home, my company is telling me to go into counties with confirmed presence of coronavirus to knock on doors. The sad thing is you don't make any money at this job and they obviously don't care about us. The CEO loves to portray himself as this compassionate SJW but he is just a phony as I'm out here subjecting me, my family and community with exposure.

      As we closely monitor the spread of COVID-19 and its impact on communities across the globe, our hearts go out to all those who have been affected. Our number one priority is protecting the health and well-being of our employees. We suspended all in-person visits to homes until we believe it is safe to resume in-person visits. In these uncertain times, all of us at Nielsen are reminded of our responsibility to do what we can to help prevent the spread of the virus.
