Is it possible to get hired at another ad agency under the same holding company you are currently working at and is that a risky thing to inquire about?

And the holding company that owns both agencies is also free to tell those agencies they’re not allowed to poach people from within the network and they’re free to inform OP’s current agency about it.

A lot of holding companies make this difficult.

You can, but the candidate has to be the one to initiate the conversation. From experience, I was working at an Omnicom shop and was looking for a creative partner a while back. I knew of someone (but didn’t know then personally) who I thought would be perfect. She worked at another Omnicom shop. I told our recruiter and the recruiter told me that the candidate had to initiate the contact because of their non poaching policies. So if she inquired or applied, it would be fine, but our recruiter couldn’t reach out.

I interviewed with one IPG agency while working with another. They said they’d have to inform the other agency when they made an offer. Nobody at the agency I interviewed at seemed to care.

Publicis definitely doesn’t allow that. There’s a strict no poaching policy.

I feel like I was straight up lied to during the interview process. “lots of opportunities to hit quota”. I’m sitting here with only one demo two months after joining the company. it looks like our team has only two people doing demos, and demos are only happening once every two weeks. At this rate, I don’t think I’ll be even close to hitting OTE. Are there any other companies hiring right now? I’ll have a discussion about my concerns with my manager soon, but there’s too many red flags here.

How were your experiences when letting it out the bag early like that?

Sharing some thoughts I’ve had lately:

The end of my suffering occurs with the death of my ego. I am reborn when I surrender to life exactly as it is, right at this moment (and it’s always “this moment”). I can begin to grow when I either accept life as it is, or I change my life because I can’t accept it. The better I become at surrender and acceptance, the more I experience serenity. After a long enough time I realize I’ve had a spiritual awakening. Now I am peace / joy / love.
