There were 230 people on one teams call. I think there was a second call later in the day. I don’t know if everybody on that 1st call was FCB NY but more likely all of IPG health. No idea if there will be more but the rumor is that it was all happening at one time. Very similar to the culling that occurred when FCB health lost Pfizer - band-aid ripped.

Sorry I mistyped. I meant FCB Health NY.

over 200 people apparently, it’s all over FB, etc.

That would be most of the agency, which is not true. I’m guessing you got FCB NY mixed up with FCB Health NY as CD1 did. Still sad news of course

I was asking about the FCB NY office specifically, not FCB Health.

Area 23 folks as well? I would think with Dana on top it would have helped more IPG/FCB folks.

A23 lost 5 in Editorial

Anybody from leadership?

Boomer. I am in between jobs. Laid off in 10/21 after 16+ yrs, with an ABA firm. RIF. Still on excellent terms. Took my time living off generous package and didn’t seriously start applying until 01/22. Made a rookie mistake and accepted first offer.
Turns out job wasn’t as advertised. Mutual parting of ways 3/22. Due diligence is critical.
Now interviewing a LOT. Some temp work, I still have “it”. I relate to all gens. Willing to mentor AND learn from all. Tech savvy, CTE from day one. Leads?

Any advice on how to handle an ECD in charge of your salary who says the only way to get a promotion or even a COL raise of any kind is through winning an award? Not consistently reliable and solid performance. Not keeping the client happy and profitable. “You either win an award, or all ya get is to keep your job.”
And yes, I’m aware leaving is always an option, but eager for any other advice how to navigate.
