Vantaggi

- Nice work environment - Some interesting benefits, as Home Office, prepaid health service, three weeks of vacations (currently in Argentina are two weeks) - Good place to learn to use statistical tools as SAS, depending on the area you are working for

Svantaggi

- Bad Salary. Nielsen takes advantage from its position in Market Research industry paying miserable salaries, even when the work that you do is a qualified job like Data Mining and SAS development. - Management: In most cases Nielsen has a poor management. The above is in the position an employee, less is his/her known both internal and external needs. - IT: Data security has a poor standard. It's really easy to hack their sql databases. Some IT employees leave user and passwords in open text files which are in public folders, which is a madness for any IT people. Integration: Nielsen differents' areas has no connection between them. It's almost impossible to ask for cooperation some areas, specially the ones regarding internal data, which is needed to do your work.

Vantaggi

Absolutley nothing. Which is a tragedy, because Nielsen was once an absolutely great place to work. I wanted to retire here. The culture used to be great, and I really loved being a part of this place. I loved my team, my management, and the people. Then along came the current CEO who is the classic example of a person who knows the cost of everything, but the value of nothing. He took over and ran the company full speed ahead in to the iceberg. And to try and save the sinking ship, he laid off literally thousands of highly experienced, highly trained, and highly engaged people to replace them with fresh overseas hires who know nothing about the company and expect them to be trained from the ground up to replace literally centuries of collective expererience and client relations. It's a disaster. This CEO shouldn't be trusted to run a lemonade stand.

Svantaggi

Everything. Pay, job security, culture, management. Nothing is good here anymore. Don't take a job here unless you are truly desperate. And even then, it should only be as a stop-gap until you can find something else.
