Pros

I applied at Nielsen because I thought the industry was fairly shielded from layoffs but that has changed and there is no longer a reason to work there. If you want to gain expertise as a kid out of college, this is a great place to work. They will ride you until you collapse but you'll gain experience in the process.

Cons

Their technology department is disorganized and overwhelmed by the stupid process called BPQ which is great for new products but terrible for changes to existing products or for services. My advice if you want to keep your job is kiss a lot of ass and work 70 hours per week.

Toxic work environment, HR way too involved in everything, the company expects us to be robots, document everything every person says at all times. Over working everyone since layoffs
