Anyone got salary today??
Hi folks,
I am going through interview process in Nielseniq currently for Big data engineer role.
Total Yoe - 3.3 years
Current salary - 15 + 1 Lpa approx.
Joined Sapient only six months back.
Can someone provide your reviews so far about the company, mainly looking for learning, wlb can be compromised a bit.
Also, what should be the general expected salary for the role and tech in NielsenIQ ?

You can find another job. You cannot find another family.
But I would try to convince her before saying no.
You could always discuss the situation openly with your wife and treat her like a partner rather than an adversary that you need to “win” against.
“But honey, it’s W + K!"
@SVP1 thanks for your insight on the dynamics of my relationship with my wife. What ever would I do without your moral superiority and righteous indignation?
What’s missing is why isn’t she interested in moving? Is she currently working her dream job in your current city? Is she kicking ass in her career or her personal life and she has good reasoning to want to stay? We all can get tunnel vision when the great opportunity comes along, unfortunately relationships can complicate that a bit. But who ultimately had to sacrifice for your dream, should you consider your own sacrifice??
Have a deep conversation with your partner, weigh the pros and cons and make sure you’re being fair when you weigh “your dream” vs “her current state” as she may be in the middle of her dreams too
That her out there for a weekend and wine and dine her... draw a picture of how amazing your life will be there and tell her “we can always move back"
Vayner isn’t your dream job?
Show her a video by Gary Vaynerchuck and tell her need to get as far away from this as physically possible. Get in the car.
It depends. Is she your starter wife?
If you always prioritize family, you won’t go wrong. That said, I echo what many have said already - be open, honest and empathetic. Together, if you can identify why this move will be good for you as a couple (not just your own personal career ambitions) then perhaps you’ve got a new adventure on your hands. Also, I realize that we must work together. Not sure if you are in the creative group, but either way, if you feel comfortable chatting it out, I’m always down. I realize this offer feels awkward. I’d probably feel weird taking me up on it myself. But life is life. Not a job. If I can help you (or anyone at Vayner) find clarity or pursue passions or whatever else, even if that’s not at Vayner, I’m all for it. And if it is at Vayner, even better. Bottom line, everyone deserves their dream job. Or at least the opportunity to pursue it. If I can help (I may have connections at said dream agency), I’d definitely love to. But first, talk with your wife. Identify how the dream can apply to both of you. And in the end, life is short. Nothing is permanent. If it ends up not being what you both bargained for, come on back. ❤️
Divorce.
Trick her into signing a contract, and the if she breaches it sue her
Does Wieden recruit from Vayner? If so, then we all have a chance 😂
Cunning linguist
Tell her you currently work at Vayner.
And that sort of response is one of the reasons I’ve always liked and respected you, Steve. Same goes for the rest of Vayner leadership. We have a lot to discuss here at home first, but I may reach out at some point depending on how things play out.
Tell her how it's going to be and that she better get on board with the program.
Take the first interview. Then the next one. Then explain the benefits to your wife. Then try it for a year, as someone else said, you can always move back.
You could show her how people talk about vayner on fishbowl and make the point that staying there will be bad for your career in the long run.
Win the interview get the dream job. If you get it the wife will catch your excitement, if she still won't go decline the interview and see if they sweeten the offer. Let wife know new offer. She will be forced to shut down your excitement again.
If she still won't go. Ask yourself what does she really bring to your life? If you don't have a great response then assess what it means to be a couple.
