Pros

Personal use of work vehicle

Cons

Everything. Expect to have no life outside of this job. You are graded on a number that is generated by the performance of failing equipment. Nielsen is incredibly far behind in their technology and you will be the one to pay for it. This company is absolute trash.

Good People, Messy Company

Pros

Smart people, good work life balance, flexible schedules

Cons

No career path, weak senior management, no transparency into pay or growth, re-orgs nonstop, senior managers who don't know what they're doing. Low pay. HR is a disaster. No on-boarding or off-boarding. No rhyme or reason for titles and pay.

Pros

Still a dominant player in the market, with solid talent and offerings. Provides opportunity to grow, learn and make lateral moves to gain experience across the business. Focused on building and improving its culture.

Cons

Nielsen is in a time of transition, with too many offerings and not enough focus. Need cohesive and clear messaging from management to the employees.
