Tech org has less than 50 people remaining outside India, and that number will go down further as they continue laying people off. Sales is still in the US, but a lot of Product roles are also being moved to India.
Only those who cannot find a job elsewhere I guess...
Nielsen does not publish a U.S.-only headcount. Its latest official report (year-end 2025) gives Americas: 3,701 out of a global total of 11,806.
That Americas number is the United States plus Canada and Latin America. The U.S. is the large majority of it.
The last time Nielsen broke out the U.S. specifically in a public filing was year-end 2021 (pre-privatization and after several rounds of cuts): about 6,200 U.S. employees. Headcount has fallen since then.
There’s still gotta be field reps maintaining homes. I’m sure the ones that are left are either drowning in work, don’t care about quality or riding it out for the paycheck.
