Pros

Nielsen is a gigantic corporation that allows for large levels of lateral career moves across industry, and even across function. If you're a small business owner and are looking for a buyer, Nielsen may make you an offer. Most growth happens via acquisition here.

Cons

Cubicle-city = antiquated culture, little career structure = no clear career development path for many, low pay across the board at roughly 60% of industry standards. "Market-driven" decision-making by upper level management has allowed the occasional brutality of Wall Street to take a role in the average workday.

Pros

Work-life balance, great autonomy, great culture, amazing people to work with. Great experience and foundation for a CPG Career. Supportive management and peers.

Cons

Underpaid to CPG standards/equivalents. Little to no global opportunity. Smaller office locations need to work on office environment (having desks for everyone) and immediate training to support their people. Don't really recognize having a Master's Degree (not needed here).

Pros

As a Part time worker, I don't have too many benefits as the full time workers do, but Its really good pay, and they care of the people, they try to give the best training and updates to do a better job each day. Also is not just about quantity of work, its about quality of it! so dont worry about if you dont become a best performer.

Cons

Sometimes as a call center job its really boring just seat there and dont get any calls by 30 minutes, but you get paid anyways. So if youre thinking to join, look for a couple books to read in meantime.
