How easy is it to hop agencies within Omnicom (more specifically omnicom health)? At IPG this was frowned on but seemingly quite doable, but the upcoming merger has me worried, as I contemplate a move from my current Omni job to an IPG one. I’m especially interested in hearing from omnicom people who’ve tried hiring candidates from other omnicom shops— how did that go?

I think you can do it, but your pay bump will be hampered since they'll be able to see exactly what you were making at the other agency

If I was at an omnicom agency, id be looking to hop out of that company. OAG is going to decimate a lot their holdings.

Yeah. Id be looking for a non omnicom shop. Hornely id be looking for a non holding co or small holding co (stagwell or similar) shop.

As mentioned, holding CO’s cap the salary increase. So try to make it happen before the merger.

My experience with hopping within ipg health is that it’s a transfer, no pay bumps no title promos. I’m assuming that will remain with omnicom

Why would you jump to an IPG company when it’s about to be acquired?

It’s like a 50k pay bump and I’d really like to lock that in pre-merger. Feels like a bird in the hand but actively looking for advice here. I know ipg is the acquiree but they spank omnicom in the health space so hopefully Omni will be looking to learn something there vs firing all of ipg, or is that deluded of me to think?

Easy on the media side and we def prioritize internal so there’s less training to do

It’s doable. There’s a website that outlines the steps. During COVID, when a lot of people were leaving (the Great Resignation), they were pushing internal moves rather than having people leave the holding company.

Thoughts on giving less than 2 weeks notice?

I’m quite frustrated and ready to start new job ASAP. I’ve been at current job for nearly 3 years and anyone who might be potential reference for future jobs (old bosses) has already left the company. I have good relationships here otherwise too.
1.5 week notice will work out with my upcoming travel plans and personal life as well, but concerned about if agencies really put you on “do not rehire” list?

Anyone give less notice and get in trouble?

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out. And when I say workout I mean the most pathetic, sad, barely completed beginner-level cardio dance routines. I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️
