I've noticed a few weak attempts to boost morale lately, but it only made things worse. Nielsen kept messing up in how it treats employees, and it finally backfired. Even the top performers have stopped putting in extra effort. Things aren't looking... — read more 

Once signing the paperwork, how long does it take to begin receiving severance?

I would be glad to see SOME of the tech support from TAM kicked to the curb. The arrogance from some of people that haven't been in the field in over a decade is disturbing. The last time they worked on any of it in the real world was back in the... — read more 

All the talented employees were laid off just to fatten the pockets of those on top. There’s hardly any talent left to turn the company around. More layoffs are probably coming soon - after all, what's going to fund bonuses for executives? I'm now... — read more 

Is the Gracenote side of the Nielsen business equally affected by the ongoing layoffs? Does anyone know if that part might be kept more viable -- in order to sell it perhaps?

Has everyone been laid off yet? Have to imagine number of employees left in US numbers in the 100s only at this point

Nielsen India Media Pvt Ltd has leased 112,404 sq ft of office space in Commerze III, International Business Park, Oberoi Gardens, Goregaon East, Mumbai. The 10-year lease agreement with Oberoi Realty, signed on July 9, 2024, covers the 36th, 37th... — read more

I feel all current employees who stick around to get severance might be treated badly and laid off without severance. I know some people and teams were fired when they said they cannot deliver on time with reduced staff. Do you guys see signs of this... — read more 

What a complete joke. This company has no future. “Very excited to transfer the work” — those are peoples jobs who have made revenue for the company for decades you d- - - - -bag

Several people eliminated today: Panel Relations Specialists PRS Leads PRS Manager Recruitment Specialists RS Leads RS Manager Technical Specialists TS Leads

Does it seem like no one cares anymore about getting anything done? Days to get a reply on anything, deadlines not met, knowledge transfer with laid off employees

Revenue down but profit and cash flow massively up. Maybe their awful plan of stripping out any cost i.e. humans is working lol I guess time will tell if clients vote with their feet and if revenue drops as client dissatisfaction with being offshored... — read more 

After being laid off I just accepted a new job but it’s in office. I haven’t worked in office in years and am feeling upset about leaving my pets and family. I’ve felt so blessed to get to spend so much time with them during the day and now that I’ll... — read more 

And it will last through Sept. Post, pls. It’s so difficult to follow what’s going on and know what to expect bcs of the constant state of chaos.

They just announced that they’re selling MMM and NCS to Circana. What do you think? Good news/bad news?

Wasn't there talk about more layoffs in September?

Hmm I wonder what happened with the GDL people they replaced the US staff they laid off or fired? As of late, Managers and TLs have been micromanaging the few of us US staff remaining. policing every single minute every break and basically... — read more 

I’ve been looking for another job for three months now. Got some offers, most of them underpaid. There was literally one which was good in every respect, but it didn’t work out. I’ve recently widened the scope, going for jobs far out, including govt... — read more 

A few weeks ago there was an announcement that 25% of staff would be let go. Has anyone an update on this?

Thoughts??

Do they actually have any kind of plan in place? Do they realize how many projects are just going to fall apart if just one more person in the dept leaves/is let go?

With all the headcount reductions, cost savings goals and morale issues, why are they planning NGID? We should modify the design of the shameful shirts to say 'I volunteered for Nielsen and all I got was a crummy t-shirt.'

I’ll start it off. Life has been 1000 percent better since moving on this year. Always realized how toxic the environment had become there while still employed with the company, but once gone I then realized how much MORE I was putting up with just... — read more 

I'm taking voluntary redundancy and sprinting away like a puma. Good luck everyone.

As a TAM employee I have to wonder when the MRC will sniff out the horrible quality standards being broken by employees and Nielsen’s new way of working for PRS’. In the past, it was a requirement to keep overdue work items at an absolute minimum... — read more

He have to be the worst CEO ever, I would even say he is flat out stupid. Wait until the end where he explains why panels do it, it's hilarious! The people "running" Nielsen have to understand this, but they don't care and let this d-mb-a-s run a... — read more
