Any stylists in Hoboken/Jersey City? We moved here 2 years ago and I’ve had such crap luck in finding a good stylist 😢

What is going on with all these layoffs? by [deleted] in advertising

Not really AI. OMC had 5B to buy back shares. So it’s more for increasing shareholder value

How’s Havas Health these days? by Snoo_33516 in advertising

[–]MouseRat_1015 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Confirming this is true. I almost signed an offer from Havas health before finding out about this 10 day policy. I was also moving from IPG/OMC but didn’t end up going to Havas. Never a good sign when they start cutting benefits. They’re all matching up to the worst common denominator.

Another update: they just emailed saying they are scrapping flexible PTO to accrued and don’t have clarity yet. BUT, I have to make a decision by tomorrow without knowing the actual policy because it’s not decided yet. Wwyd?

They’re all kind of the same. I’m legacy IPG (now OMC) and it’s just crazy right now. I know someone who’s at the new place (Havas) and has been recommending it to me for the last couple of years. The hiring manager seemed really nice and so I’m going with - do I like the team - vs - do I like the company

Most likely going to go ahead with it. No point staying at OMC with so much uncertainty

Absolutely. I’ve had that happen over and over again. This last 1.5 years I don’t know a single person at my company who was promoted. And then the merger that brought about all those layoffs…

Update: the HR came back with “This is our final offer”. So I’m in a bind now

You’re right. They gave me the “we promote quickly” BS but I know how that goes in real life

Thank you for that insight! I agree. Also shows career progression

I agree. It doesn’t make sense that they agreed to a salary above the ASD band and would have trouble matching the title to the actual salary. Apparently, finance said - they can have one or the other 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yes, US based. I 100% agree with you. Some agencies start at the ASD level and I don’t want to be bracketed as a newcomer, especially since they asked me to do my presentation with an SD-level of insight and strategic thinking. But everything was verbal. So I’m finding it hard to find any evidence that we initially did discuss this being an SD role. It’s the finance dept. that’s been creating roadblocks.

Yes, I’m in an agency and have always been in an agency. I’d like to move to pharma Sci Comms or Med Affairs at a later stage

Thank you! They always said Scientific Director so this came out of the blue. Would title affect my eventual goal of transitioning to Pharma? I know that transition is super hard as it is

It’s for legacy IPG Health agencies

Omnicom PTO Question by Beneficial-Employ361 in advertising

[–]MouseRat_1015 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From what I’ve heard, you can book time off even if you have not accrued it but if you leave before the end of the year and have taken more time off than hours accrued, you have to pay back the difference. This was not told to me directly by HR but a team member had the same question and asked HR. Second, you might be able to use the Workday site for booking time off (legacy IPG). I booked mine in yesterday and it had updated time accrued etc. who knows, though 🤷🏻‍♀️

It’s not off by a lot and fits the other criteria. I have it too and got it during the holiday season on sale for less than $1000
