In Hamburg, probably most of us are in short-time work. I’ve heard that from people at Jung von Matt, Grabarz & Partner and Philipp und Keuntje. So no layoffs yet and only small, time-limited paycuts. Let’s see in a couple of months...
Don’t know about other cities and network agencies, though. But I imagine it’s the same.

same here in Berlin. Lots of short time work, but not so many layoffs thankfully. DDB/Voltage seems to be doing especially well. Don't know if anybody's hiring though. I think not.

No layoffs, only Kurzarbeit. No new hires, promotions, raises, freelancers.
