      Pros

      There are some great opportunities at Nielsen if you know how to work the system. Offers a great work/life balance.

      Cons

      Too many changes all at once. Little to no place to have private or confidential conversations, such as reviews with your manager or HR . Office atmosphere is cold. Even with new configuration of office space, people still don't talk to each other or make the office a comfortable working environment.

      Pros

      Name recognition flexible work schedule casual atmosphere good/fun coworkers

      Cons

      low pay relative to work put in terrible benefits depressing work space researchers are relegated to support role for sale/account not enough money put into technology (wasted money on outsourcing tech support, which is pretty useless) tech functions are kept separate, when they should be more integral to research no training for managers who don't know how to handle staff lots of buzz words with no action static roles, where change to other job functions/verticals are discouraged senior management out of touch with day-to-day

      It used to be a great place to work, but not since they decided to slowly outsource the entire company!

      Pros

      The benefits are good, and they are very flexible. The experience is great, as you learn a variety of great skills.

      Cons

      They are outsourcing the place to India, and it is very evident that India(TCS) is now running Nielsen. I was just told this week how to run my department by a lead TCS contact from India, and senior management did not step in. They just let it happen. It's very sad to see this company fall apart. More and more clients are leaving and unhappy. Run for the hills!
