      Pros

      Nice compensation and perks, working independently

      Cons

      Extreme pressure to produce numbers that are difficult to achieve on a consistent basis, much of your job performance depends on the decisions of strangers to say yes to participating, you're only as good as what you've done this week, no life/work balance

      You would feel better working for an oil company

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - You get benefits - You get to put Nielsen on your resume

      Cons

      - They underpay by ~20% because you get to put Nielsen on your resume - Your job will probably eventually be offshored - They do not care about retention - Most executives are men - Most of the offerings are out of date and they are very slow with innovation (which doesn't even appear to be a priority) - HR is horrific

      Great company to build a resume or grow a career

      Pros

      Everyone knows of Nielsen, so working for The Nielsen Company is great to include on a resume. Also, in such a large and diverse company there are a lot of opportunities to grow a career here, especially if you are able and willing to move for opportunities.

      Cons

      The benefits here are pretty bad. Medical insurance is bare bones and the vacation time is as lean as they can legally get away with... on the upside, a lot of positions allow the opportunity to work from home, especially after you have been here a while.
