Hi everyone. I’m an Adweek reporter working on a story about workplace culture and how employees are feeling ahead of the IPG–Omnicom merger expected to close this fall.

I’d love to hear from people currently at IPG or Omnicom agencies. Conversations can be totally anonymous/on background unless you’d like otherwise.

If you’re open to sharing, please DM me here or reach out on Signal at audreygkemp.75. Your perspective would be really valuable. Thank you.

IPG, enjoy your 401k contributions while you can.

How we are feeling is obvious no?

Will people at IPG lose their contributions or it won’t vest?

I am product designer with a fair amount of experience (6yrs).

Recently was interviewed for a Sr. role in Booking but unfortunately the team finds me better suited as a core individual contributor.

I am also in the advanced stages of some lead designer positions in other companies.

However I am really interested in joining the team at Booking, especially because of the design culture.

What should be my reasons to accept or not accept the offer from booking?

Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?
