      Great Learning but work life balance is non-existent

      Executive
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Challenging work with the opportunity to learn a great amount about Marketing.

      Cons

      The work load in Nielsen is really poorly managed. Official hours are 9.00am-5.30pm, but you will often work up until 11pm on most nights. In addition to that, working over weekends is very common. The compensation package (salary) is below average and when the amount of hours are factored in, it is not even worth it.
