Heard BBH NY laid off 1/3 of the agency today. Mostly women and/or POC. 😬

The agency is run by two high profile women so it’s probably a good assumption they made the decisions.

POC=Last ones in and first ones out the door. Nothing surprising there.

Stop crying wolf every time a woman or POC gets laid off

Not actually true that they pick the names. Even though it would make sense.

Did leadership or anyone take pay cuts? Heard Publicis was encouraging that

Just wait. It’s coming. Soon.

Since this was posted in the “advertising “ bowl and not the BBH bowl, it’s open to everyone to respond. Stop telling people how to react/respond/think, jeez! Signed, person who actually worked at BBH (loved it) a number of years ago with some of the most amazing women I’ve met in advertising. I simply can’t imagine having the audacity to tell people to eff off with their opinions if they differ from mine.

Seconding OP
