      Pros

      Flexibility in hours and able to work from home. Nielsen in well known within the consumer products industry so there is instant brand equity for the products and services.

      Cons

      The company is currently owned by private equity firm and are reorganizing to boost the bottom line. Employee morale is low. There were layoffs early in 2008, in October and then again at the end of January 2009. the burden is very high on those left to continue the work; many of them are looking for other jobs. Many of the core operational and standard services have been off-shored to India. Consequently the reliability and quality of the data is suffering.

      Pros

      The people are one of the best reasons to work for this company. I have never met more intelligent and nicer people in another company. The job itself is also quite good - interesting work and allows for autonomy. which is great. The work/life balance within this company is encouraged and has been evident with flexibilty when needed.

      Cons

      The employee morale within this company has been on a steady decline since I joined and is now probably lower than it has been over the last few years. The lack of recognition of employees who are not senior management is apparent here and every move to better your career is a battle. more money = batte; promotion = battle, the constant "even though you have exceeded expectations, money/promotion not this time,,,,sorry" is frustrating, esp after several years of excelling performance reviews. The company is great for junior level employees and senior. For anyone in between, not as lucky. Also, the pay does not match competitor companies.
