from Reddit r/advertising

John Wren telling Wall Street investors that they have met and exceeded the $750m in cost synergies.

"The result of our integration planning is we remain highly confident in exceeding the synergies we expected when we first announced the acquisition."
"Synergies. I'm not prepared to disclose them, but I will tell you that we have clearly identified synergies in excess of what I promised at the time we announced the deal."

Wren estimates that around 4,000 positions will be eliminated globally.
“That’s going to allow us to meet and exceed the synergies that we promised the marketplace last December,” he told ADWEEK.

How do you get this all around LinkedIn? Obviously, if you decided to defer his bonus this year, he could’ve saved everybody he fired.

I’d go to the office everyday too if I made that kind of money. Sadly MTA is raising the price to $3 and that adds up with no raises in sight.

Imagine if he deferred half of his bonus. What would $7 million save in terms of human beings? Figure the average salary in the main income generating departments of an ad agency is around $150,000? Maybe less? So he could’ve saved 60 jobs. And if he thinks they don’t need those jobs that’s fine, he could’ve just saved people for three months. To let people get through the holidays and the fact that no businesses higher in January. Done the layoffs in February. Hope the man has kids and I hope they read this stuff

One day may he know being poor

He’ll definitely be getting a bonus for moving the acquisition through so don’t believe the $0 there

If you REALLY want to be upset, google his net worth

Damn we could hire Naz Reed to be our CEO with that money

That’s it? Thought it would be more.

Probably wants the 39million JPMorgan ceo gets

Can someone explain how billable hours work?
