Audio division announced that we'll all get the "mental health" day this year. However, instead of May 24th, we'll be taking it the weekend of Father's Day. That's a week or 2 weeks depending, after the Spring Radio Diary ends. I wonder if they plan... — read more

I felt relieved a little when we first found out because the unknown was so stressful but now as the date gets closer I'm just sad and worried. I enjoyed this job and I really loved my team. Watching other names take over my work is soul-su-king. — read more

Are they just not happening today? Good job everyone.

So the CEO Karthic is pi---d off about this site and is steady watching it, commenting trying to bait, making status trying to get people to give some kinda of hint or detail about that position or team to possibly end them and their severance and... — read more 

Now that they are firing everybody and moving to those Low Cost Countries (with low-cost work force having access to lot's and lot's of private data from US markets, etc) they are more than ever active in sites like LinkedIn. It is disgusting how... — read more

It’s pay week and I got laid off! Same process everyone else has described. Good luck out there folks

The way US workers are now being treated by Nielsen is a disgrace, so maybe a walkout is in order? Nielsen is only Nielsen because of its people, and would only be around for 100 years due to us … so is it time to stage a walkout? Once this news... — read more 

Are pay period layoffs back again? Anyone got any intel

Anyone got laid off in Texas? Please state your team/ position.

I know it's difficult to find a new job. Right now, the job market is not good for anybody, from what I can see. That's what's making these layoffs even scarier for me. It's one thing to find yourself without a job when you can be relatively sure... — read more
