Pros

The team does good work. The data is pretty concrete. The clients have been good to work with as well and there is a lot of learning involved.

Cons

NJ office is quiet isolated from what happens in the HQ in Glenview where the action is. If you are not happy in your role in NJ, nobody in HQ would really care. Its politics that work. Overall, its still not a bad place to work.

Pros

I like the fact that there is tremendous potential to grow and its a multifunctional company so that people can develop their skills across the various platforms available at Nielsen.

Cons

the company is not open about the merit system and promotions. The salary differentials on the same position are drastic.
