IPG and Omnicom people: how are you feeling about this merger?

I feel like people at my agency are dropping like flies trying to get out before it goes through.

I don't work there personally but I have a friend who did. She got the heck out of there because of the merger. I think she was afraid she may not have a job later if she didn't get out.

Compliance question here, I have always thought of the SALT deduction on the fed return as a perm item & have treated as such in such sch M-3. I see that some people put it as a temp on sch M-3. What is the justification for treating it as a temp on the M-3. You don’t set up a deferred on the def RF for the state tax deduct & it is also a rate impacting item (I know that some temps can be rate impacting). But this all leaves me to side with perm. Does anyone know the logic behind temp treatment?
