Pros

Lots of freedom, car and gas card, bonus can be great if you run your area good. Schedule your own day for the most part. Meet and see lots of interesting people this company has HUGE opportunity to move up if your willing to relocate. The upper headquarters management really seems to care about there employees

Cons

Bonus are dependent on whether your homes that you're in charge of push there buttons or let you in to get things done, out equipment is ancient and consistently breaks but its your bonus that's effected. Management is outdated with managers stuck in the old ways of doing things. Only look at numbers and never pay attention to what you're actually getting done. Horrible work life Ballance if homes want to schedule at 7:30pm and they live 2 hours away that's were you'll be.

Pros

Absolutley nothing. Which is a tragedy, because Nielsen was once an absolutely great place to work. I wanted to retire here. The culture used to be great, and I really loved being a part of this place. I loved my team, my management, and the people. Then along came the current CEO who is the classic example of a person who knows the cost of everything, but the value of nothing. He took over and ran the company full speed ahead in to the iceberg. And to try and save the sinking ship, he laid off literally thousands of highly experienced, highly trained, and highly engaged people to replace them with fresh overseas hires who know nothing about the company and expect them to be trained from the ground up to replace literally centuries of collective expererience and client relations. It's a disaster. This CEO shouldn't be trusted to run a lemonade stand.

Cons

Everything. Pay, job security, culture, management. Nothing is good here anymore. Don't take a job here unless you are truly desperate. And even then, it should only be as a stop-gap until you can find something else.
