Pros
Nielsen is well recognized for its products and services. This is a great start to your career; it looks good to have Nielsen on your resume.
Cons
Right now I feel as if Nielsen is on a downward trend. Dave Calhoun has suspended promotions and raises for six months, and there is a hiring freeze, on top of layoffs in the latter part of last year. This is not helping employee morale. In fact, this strategy is going to drive away talented employees who will find opportunities on the client side where they will get rewarded for their hard work.
