Starcom is used by Publicis the parent company.

Holidays are basically unlimited. Just gotta make sure you communicate with yourself team.

Summer Fridays is dependent on work load but pretty good.

401k is 3%?? I forgot lol.

Hope this helps :)

Healthcare can’t answer as I had my own. Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays pretty standard with most agencies.

Thanksgiving is like 4 days.

Christmas is a few days.

Agency work from anywhere from like mid December to January. I forgot the exact dates 😅

Standard 16 days holidays with 3 extra days gifted between Christmas and NYE each year. This year we also got an additional 5 days off over the summer. On top of that, most agencies at Publicis get unlimited PTO but a good guide is about 4 weeks. They have excellent benefits like mobile phone, most agencies have flex and WFH and good work/life balance (but this will depend on agency and team/account). All Publicis has 401k match up to 4% (if you contribute 5%) and medical is definitely in the better end of most US employees. There are very few places that do better than that, I think and you’ll probably find some sister agencies at Publicis may even be better than Starcom.
