Pros

Skills developed at Nielsen are highly marketable in the CPG industry. Managers tend to allow flexible work schedules. Good 401k match (50% up to 6% of pay).

Cons

Current senior management - made up of former GE execs - have been slashing costs with minimal consideration of the impact the cost cutting moves will have on the long term health of the business. Although work schedules may be flexible, work hours tend to be long. Training programs are weak and constantly re-engineered.
