It's a good place to start your career probably, and the tag might open doors for you, but the nature of the work here might as well shut those very doors if you stay too long.
Dislikes
The official title says "Editor" but the job is a glorified desk data entry job. The Bangalore team consists, of quite frankly, the most horrendous people I've ever had the misfortune to meet. "Team" is a loosely based term to describe these individuals, as there is no teamwork happening. The seniors are sexist, misogynistic and quite frankly disappointing to work with. If you are someone who's blinded by all the good work Nielsen has done over the years, and is actively looking/ considering this position, hoping to make the same impact, I assure you none of that good work is coming from this particular department.
The work you do here WILL NOT TRANSFER to another position, because of its extremely redudant nature. If you're looking for a job that's quite unskilled, as a way to make some extra cash, then this is the role for you, however the politics alone will make you quit. Senior-Junior hierarchy is terrible, no proper training, no proper communication, emails are seen as threats, and the team, despite being educationally qualified, have no understanding of how corporate culture works, and honestly are poor representatives of the Nielsen culture.
Apply and join at your risk....Read More
Job security, diversity, equality and inclusion, helpful peers (individual contributor level), work-life balance (you can focus on things other than work once you log out)
Dislikes
Managers can be vague and sometimes unsupportive, terrible appraisals and low salaries, career growth is almost non-existent unless you're an overachiever
