Reorganization - lacking communication

Pros

The work done by this company is very interesting and challenging. There pay scales seem to be in line with the market rates and they do have good benefits, health care, dental, vision, matching 401K plan and additional optional contributions to your 401.

Cons

The company is going through a reorganization and employees are uneasy. As people are unsure of their future, there is an increased tendency to not be too collaborative if you think it might effect your job security. Communication, when it does flow down from the top, is not openly communicated - much is spread through conversations with other employees.

A Leadership company in the making

Pros

Nielsen is a global leader, recognized around the world by all industries as an expert in data. The company is TRYING to perform a transformation from data provider to consultant...its a marathon, not a sprint.

Cons

The Nielsen Company is SO large that the softer side of business is sometimes lost by senior management. We are not just 0's and 1's (or 4, 3, 2, 1's)...to be a leadership company, true leadership must shine.
