FCB is not a holding company. FCB is under Interpublic.

With that said, here’s my order:

IPG
Havas
Omnicom
WPP
Publicis

Omnicom sucks

Surprisingly IPG has been doing fairly well. WPP and Publicis’ constant cost-cutting measures have come back to bite them hard

Hi ladies!
I’m interviewing next week for a Sr Account Manager role @ a digital mkt agency.
The interviewer asked me to send in my salary expectation before we talk. This is a little bit challenging to me. Talk numbers.
The position ask for at least 4 years experience. I have 6.
I want to ask for a fair amount because I do think I can bring much value to the company.
Also don’t want to compromise just because I’m out of work at the moment. Do you guys have a suggestion ? TIA!!!

Need some advice. Started working at a small real estate marketing agency about 2 months ago. Pay is good but…It’s absolutely toxic. The CEO is a jerk. Some of the content I work on is okay, but I don’t see this place doing much for my portfolio in the long run. How long should I stay or should I just bail ASAP? Are all agencies really like this?
