Can’t be just me. Doesn’t it feel gross to see all the LinkedIn posts from people in Cannes after so many years of constant layoffs? 1 day in and so over it.

I mean, if it isn’t Cannes it’s the other awards shows. Or jury announcements. or Super Bowl backslapping. It’s year round nonstop. LinkedIn can be soul sucking

I've been in this industry a decade and still can't get myself to become excited about Cannes

Don’t forget… there are always multiple rounds of layoffs a month or two after leadership gets back from Cannes too. Got to make up for the luxury boondoggle somehow, right?

Deactivated and don’t have these problems 🙂‍↔️
F LinkedIn, unless you’re looking for a job.

Don’t get mad at it. It’s sad but we’re watching the end of the industry. Agency executives are terrified for their jobs and omnicom is getting a directive to do more layoffs before end of quarter or just after.

This is going down with the ship. We are not growing revenues as an industry.

Which agencies got affected with omnicom layoffs

Just more egomaniacal behavior in an industry filled with insecure mouth breathers who have completely lost touch with reality…

Tale as old as time. Don’t be shocked to see big layoffs after Cannes also. I’ve got it on good authority that they’re coming for at least one holding co agency.

Yup. Omnicut. It isn’t a secret.
