Does IPG Health give yearly cost of living raises during your APE? What’s the path to promotion like? Do they give end of year bonuses?

FCB health has over-promoted so many untalented, undeserving people (IMO)

I got cost-of-living increases (presumably — a small raise every year) every year I worked at an IPG agency, but I’m not sure how common that is.

Seconding that the road to promotion seemed to be “favoritism”.

There are raises. Our shop is encouraged to give everyone something, available pool withstanding.

Agree there’s a lot of over-inflated titles but promotions seem in line with years-of-experience (though not necessarily a winning strategy).

Thanks for the info, I’ve had interviews with both FCB and McCann and just trying to get a sense of what they’re like. It’s my understanding they still operate as two separate entities since i dealt with different recruiters. Is one better than the other?

Keep in mind where i’m currently at there is no such thing as a cost of living raise during APE. Raises just don’t exist here unless you get promoted.

My holding agency does annual increase. But as poster said it’s not COL. I’m interested to see what happens this year with inflation being so high.
