Hi everyone, I was laid off in Sep but haven't received my W-2 form yet. Whom should I contact? Thanks for insights

The situation has been unsettling, with uncertainty prevailing. Sujit's message suggests that once the hubs are established outside the U.S., many of our jobs may be at risk, adding to the current anxiety. Any additional information or insights would... — read more 

Where was our new Communications Director today ??? I thought Karthik would introduce us to her. No mention of this appointment at all. WHY ?

What a joke. I declined.

How much will audience measurement operations mix be affected in layoffs? Is it going to be tomorrow?

He will begin by saying that business was better in Q4 but it wasn't enough to cover shortfalls earlier. He will say a bunch of word salad that contains the following important phrases: "Where we work" "How we work" "Centers of Excellence" What... — read more 

Layoffs are not a business strategy. A company feeling pressure from investors to cut costs. Going back to the well is the worst way to treat your employees and causes anxiety. The people who stay lose trust in management, if they haven't already... — read more 

Tomorrow is Karthik's Momentum meeting where everyone has been saying he will announce a company layoff is coming. Although I'm nervous about it, it makes me wonder if anything anyone said here is true or they were simply saying things to make people... — read more 

They keep firing employees because the company's going downhill but they wouldn't step down? why do they keep scapegoating employees? shouldn't they take some responsibility (perhaps the entire responsibility) for what has happened to Nielsen? they... — read more 

Posting the actual call could effect your severance. But if you have nothing to loose, do it! https://www.buzzfeed.com/aglover/cloudflare-redundancy-brittany-pietsch-tiktok

Y'all think it will be a 10% reduction or larger?

It will just save a lot of stress. At least if some of us take voluntary redundancy it can possibly save others from loosing their jobs.

I haven't heard anything today. Last year the layoffs happened on Wed Jan 11. Nothing today. Are we safe now? I think we are, but wanted to see what everyone thinks.

This guy is unreal. As if he didn't make enough money destroying Nielsen? All he knows how do to is hire people (Habib) who try to cut corners within every aspect of a business to the point its people are teetering on the edge of collapse. If you... — read more 

That comment on the last post ⬆️! Is that a thing? Just speculation? Any info would be appreciated!

Thoughts? Any Nielsen layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?

Hearing more and more about layoffs in January. Anyone know if the ROC will be hit again?

The writing has been on the wall all year, folks. They’ve been hinting at it for months with JM’s nonsensical blabbers in town halls. If you have been reading in between the lines of what he is saying (and what all of leadership is saying) “No... — read more 

Nielsen doesn't have a future as it is. I've been planning to leave for a while and I'm going to start working on it after the holidays. Truth be told, I wouldn't mind being laid off and receiving severance. It would make the whole process of finding... — read more 

We really should organize before we are all laid off. I heard some people in PA are making a union, and I bet they won't be part of the next reduction. https://www.ufcw.org/start-a-union/

Hello, does anyone know if there will be new layoffs in Belgium? Particularly for the OP team? Thanks and merry Christmas 🎄

anyone heard the same? this is ki-ling me, I have survived two layoffs this year but not sure about the 3rd. help i've nightmares at night.

I've been with Nielsen as a data scientist for 10 years. I see others with 6 months of experience being promoted. I know if I ask for a promotion, I'll be gone sooner than I think. Should I just continue being used by this company? anyone in the same... — read more 

Am I the only one not giving a damn about this company drowning in debt and being outperformed by the competition? The reason I don't feel bad at all is that I was told I would be given a raise in October, then got laid off in September. Am I a bad... — read more 

My manager told me the call center people had a town hall yesterday. What did they say? Did they mention the ROC?

Hav any tech people layed off? Are tech jobs safe?

Seems like Remote work is going away. Get ready to spend a few hundred extra bucks a month on transportation, food and childcare. Let alone the travel time to and from the office. For those in cities.....add "avoiding getting stabbed on the train by... — read more 

Remember when they promised a raise in October and then laid off many in October? I feel like they're letting us celebrate the holidays in some fake happiness only to show us the door soon after. Do you guys get that feeling?

I heard from my manager that there is a possibility that the new owner consider selling off the audio business in 2024. Not having any place in the company's defined strategy is a good case in point. Has anyone heard anything?

And what's all the talk about FCM? Does FCM consult for Nielsen?

Nielsen Holdings has settled a federal discrimination lawsuit by a Chicago-based, Black female executive who had accused the company of racism, according to a civil rights group that had launched protests against the data-tracking firm. The... — read more 

Apparently they are moving a bunch of PRSs from Audio over to TAM.
