      Poor Culture and Declining

      Senior vice president sales
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great associates and good work-life balance. Most managers prioritize employees to ensure balance.

      Cons

      Executive culture is toxic, major turnover with top talent leaving over last 3 years, lack of consistent direction - mission and vision changes every 12-18 months. Broad confusion and uncertainty in lower ranks.

      Multiple reorgs as company prepares for spinoff

      Vice president, client success
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Opportunity to work with premier CPG manufacturers and really smart people

      Cons

      Nielsen continues to try to position itself for the split of its media and connect businesses and is undergoing yet another round of layoffs in the process. Open roles aren’t being filled, promotions have been postponed indefinitely, associates are expected to cover for people who have been let go. All this continued change is leading to overworked teams and disgruntled clients.

      Disorganized and lacks leadership

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      benefits are great, in the US you get "unlimited" vacation time fair with annual bonus people are wonderful to work with

      Cons

      lacks true leadership. I've been through 4 re-organizations of my immediate area in 3.5 years. Very difficult to get your feet underneath you to understand your role, everyone else's role before it changes again in my area, they did not treat the contract staff well at all. very demoralizing
