There was lots of internal drama, a seeming lack of communication and support from the top down. I was informed of a large oncoming layoff and was completely ignored by human resources and managers when asking for information, as if I was already out the door.

The company talks a good game about supporting their workers, but obviously the bottom line is far more important than the livelihoods of the individuals they employ. You have a lot of flexibility with this company. You go in to a lot of disgusting homes and meeting a lot of interesting people. If you dont like people, you wont like this job. Pros Lots of free time.

I have worked for Nielsen for 6 years and then I quit. I would not recommend this company but here is the honest truth: Good - set your own hours if you work in the field as a Membership Representative and you are provided a company car that can be used for personal use. Bad- Required consistent contact with household that have refuse to be apart of the tv rating.

Nielsen requires you to harass the home even though they said no to participation, and they encourage manipulation by presenting a gift at the door for the sole purpose of getting the household to open the door. It's extremely difficult to get promoted out of the field into the office position. Pros Company car. Cons Poor work environment. Overall innovative and caring company on diversity and inclusion.
