- Vacation & Paid Time Off(54 comments)
“Unlimited vacation! It's hard to top that. It must be manager approved, but overall, as long as you get your work done, it is a very "live...”

Didn't opt for medical plans (used my spouse's instead) as the Nielsen plans were much more expensive for a large family.

The Best: Unlimited vacation time and the Employee Stock Purchasing Program The Worst: Hard to pick. The benefits are overall great!
- NielsenJul 09, 2017StarStarStarStarStar
Standard dental and vision but the healthcare options are horrendous with high cost bi-weekly cost with high deductibles before your benefits to kick in. Even then, you're limited to UhC. . No PPO or HMO with $0 deductible offered which Nielsen's competitors offer like comScore, Millward-Brown and Ipsos.

Good 401k match and health insurance.
- NielsenJun 14, 2017StarStarStarStarStar
Top Pros - health insurance, PTO, tuition reimbursement, work/life balance Top Cons - 401k match, childcare policy
- NielsenJun 12, 2017StarStarStarStarStar
The best part of the benefits package is the 'Healthy Measures' discount. These discounts are a direct subsidy in the insurance. Discounts, for example; No Smoking, BMI index ration, working out etc.

Very generous medical, dental, and vision at a great rate for the family.
- NielsenJun 18, 2017StarStarStarStarStar
time off, and work schedule flexibility
- NielsenJun 16, 2017StarStarStarStarStar
Confusing packages and no internal departments know how it works. Everything is referred to outside vendors.
- NielsenJun 08, 2017StarStarStarStarStar
Now unlimited vacation; otherwise nothing that sets the company apart
