Pros

I find working on big name accounts exciting. They are considered to be the biggest and best at providing information (insights, whatever) to fast moving consumer packaged goods companies, and retailers of those products as well. So it's nice not being the underdog. Also, the Nielsen company as a whole is so large that I feel there are a lot of opportunities in other functions and units, all over the world. They seem to be pretty good about allowing people to move to new positions within the company.

Cons

Working as an external consultant is never easy. Also, while most of the benefits are pretty standard, I do find them lacking when comparing with previous employers.

Pros

Decent pay packet. Some of the people in the oxford office are really good fun - good after work socialising.

Cons

unless your a favoured one, there are few oppotunities for advancement. There is too much emphasise on making people redundant and outsourcing jobs to TCS in India. The positions that do remain are pretty thankless unless you are in the US as the company is very much a US-phile company.
