Nielsen Holdings N.V.

"I've worked for this company over 6 years; supervisors are just nasty and rude, the environment is so strict, total quiet on the production floor (mind you there is no one on a phone on the production floor); will offer no flex schedules, will no offer raises, no bonus but for the pod leaders, and the coffee they make is so weak it looks like reclaimed water. The company has gone down hill fast. An example they just spent thousands on a new phone system that hangs up on clients, disconnects employees calling in; and fails on a daily level. The money would have been better spent improving the IT department and offering some kind of raise. Even the night cycle does even get an incentive for working until after midnight. This is not a good company at all."

"It has a great work life balance i have a 9yr old and i dont feel like i have to choose they are very understanding"

"There are many women in management positions and appear to move up the ladder. I have worked for the company for less than a year but I was hired with them knowing I was 20 weeks pregnant and promoted less than a month after being hired. It's rare to find a company that will promote someone knowing they will be out for nearly 3 months, but this company and my management are beyond compare."

"It is overall a very solid company to work for. Pay is competitive, benefits are decent (and improving). I do have concerns about growth and I do think some departments are particularly top-heavy with men."

"There are numerous female senior managers in this organization which is great and very inspiring for mid-career professionals who seek to be inspired from female managers. A big part of this can also be explained because of Nielsen's flexible work policy allowing women to work from home, take time off/leave work early for family commitments and manage teams in such a way to make sure that work gets done!"
