      Nielsen - A great place to work.

      Pros

      I have been working in Nielsen for over 15+ years. It's a big organization with several pillars. But it's truly a connected organization. I have been part of several groups and moved from one role to another and gained an amazing experience. The leaders are very open and encourage you to take leads and help to grow fast.

      Cons

      Nothing much I can think off. When the Business is not going well, the leaders panic and start laying-off. Rather than always look for great talent outside, they should also look for options inside.

      My experience varies from great managers, who guide/challenge me, to not so great managers, who blindly assign work.

      Pros

      The best paspan from rt about working here would be the people and the variety of opportunities there are in the company. There are so many different areas that you could work I'm that it is almost unbelievable. The areas of concentration from hardware/digital meters (to collect consumer viewing) to measuring what people buy to measuring people's neurological unconscious reactions to products to business intelligence on our systems. All those opportunities are just within engineering department. The other major departments consist of Operations, Technology (infrastructure, Buy data reporting and Watch data reporting), Data Science, Human Resources, Finance, and client services. We also have many extracurricular that you can get involved in. There is recruiting, giving tours, volunteering (in schools, community and green team), and ERGS (Employee Resource Groups).

      Cons

      Work life balance is a bit hard due to the fact that we are a global company. Depending on your role, you could have meetings outside of business hours regularly, but you would still be expected to work business hours as well. Normally I wouldn't mind, but if your job consists of doing things you don't like, then it becomes really draining. Also your involvement in extracurricular such as volunteering and recruiting, which makes it really hard if you are involved and your manager changes.

      Pros

      Decent training provided for certain teams, flexi-work hours, big office space, cup noodles.

      Cons

      You can work really loooong hours, especially when there's telcon with overseas counterparts, poor salary for amount of work put in, some teams had a "disrespectful culture" (managers think they own subordinates).
