      Largest research company and good starting place to gain a few years of experience

      Pros

      Largest research company means access to a large variety of projects across multiple industries

      Cons

      A LOT of bureaucracy. Upper management may hate to admit it, but many units still operate as separate fiefdoms, though the walls are slowly coming down. Also, the company seems to be focused on throwing money at high growth opportunities, while other lucrative, yet slower growing units are feeling pinched.

      Emerging leaders program: operations and technology

      Pros

      The Emerging Leaders Program I was of part did a superb job at educating us and prepping us for full-time positions. The compensation is extremely competitive and the vast number of locations as well as different business the company has acquired are truly incredible. This has also resulted in some downfalls that I believe are currently being addressed. The result has come in way of a lot of change, something that many people despise. Assuming that this change will all come to fruition I know that Nielsen will become a much stronger company and ultimately the industry leader.

      Cons

      Considering the amount of change that is taking place it should not be surprising that organization is my first complaint. They were very slow about giving details about my employment and some interns were about to sign an apartment lease in city that Nielsen latter told them they would not be working in. That being said I have seen the steps taken to get ahead of these logistical issues and believe that in the future the program will gain great strength. In addition to these changes they have actively asked current interns about anything that could be done to improve upon the program.
