      Highly demanded, low compensation

      Sales engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Being a sales engineer means you will help clients adopt Nielsen digital products. There is a big need for this and other teams appreciate your work. It is not necessarily a highly technical role.

      Cons

      Compared to industry standards, you don't get as highly compensated. There is also no bonus or variable and no defined career path.

      Stay far away

      Field representative
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      None, unless you love working 70 hours a week and get paid for 46

      Cons

      If you want to work 10 hour days/7 days a week, then this job is a good fit. Management is so out of touch it's ridiculous. EVERYTHING falls on the Field Rep, no matter who made the mistake (membership reps make up everything from dates of birth, employers, salaries etc.) so once you visit a home, it all falls on YOUR plate. Stay far away from this company.

      Not bad if it fits you

      Membership representative
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      For the membership rep position the company gave me a car, paid training, and a great team to work with. The hours are flexible and you can set them however you want. The job itself had its ups and downs and if you are good at door to door sales you will like this job. If you speak another language it's a plus; especially spanish. Health insurance is great also. Base pay is great compared to other sales jobs.

      Cons

      Many of the sample homes were from old census data and some had been worked over before. You may get the police called on you just for trying to reach a home and sometimes you may not even get to speak to them. Also, i was put on probation for tickets i got even before i started to work with the company after i was with them for 2 years. That was unfair was it was the last straw. They went back 3 years of vehicle history and even though i got the tickets before i worked for them they still punished me for it. Room for advancement for membership rep is bad. Not many opportunities.
