Just a thought but if Omnicom offered flexible time off and unlimited sick days like Publicis, I think we’d get a lot of new talent !

You mean vacation days that you can’t take and don’t roll over?

What about if we expanded our benefits package to include competitive parental leave, family planning services such as adoption, IVF and egg retrieval as well as annual inflation adjustments to compete with the tech and consulting firms that are stealing our talent?

It varies by agency and position.

Unlimited PTO is a scam.

I have it too and have at different jobs. It’s more about the fact that they don’t have to pay you for unused days if you leave the company.

But Publicis has by far the worst creative talent of all the holding companies…

Um I'm at an Omnicom shop and we get flex time (separate from vacation time).

We don't get unlimited sick days but we accrue a lot.

If you mean unlimited PTO, that's a scam.

Also, nothing could ever, ever get me to go back to a Publicis agency. Nothing.

We don’t have unlimited sick days.

I believe this is true for both Razorfish and Publicis Sapient.

I use that unlimited PTO and will gladly keep it. But to AD1’s point, add in the rest and yeah, I’ll stay.

Is it crazy to switch a job while undergoing IVF?
I’ve been in my current role for almost 4 years. While I am generally happy, & have flexibility with time off for personal matters, there are things that bother me. I have an offer for way more money, manager title (which I want), much larger bonus & IVF benefit is better. However, I’m in the middle of stims and it is STRESSFUL. Part of me can’t imagine taking on a new role while I’m in the middle of this. But also feel like I can’t pass it up

Any help or guidance is appreciated.

Anyone hiring those who have been out of work for a year? I took time off to tend to personal matters, but I am now looking to get back into the workforce again. My previous experience includes time at B4 audit up to senior level and then transitioned to manager in industry. Senior/manager roles are preferred.

I don’t mind audit. However, I’d prefer it not to be at a B4, as I am looking for some semblance of a work life balance.

DM me if you have something above, thanks.

We have 5 attorneys (3 partners; 2 associates). Senior associate (who is being promoted to non-equity partner) is pregnant. We don’t have any sort of maternity policy but she will have 3 weeks of PTO to cash in. How do other firms handle cost of insurance premiums while ee is out? We currently cover ee portion and she pays for 100% of dependent cost. Is it reasonable to ask her to write check back to firm for her portion of dependent premiums? Assume she is taking full 4 mos off.

Has anyone ever worked at an agency in which the project management department was properly utilized? I traditionally was brought up in my career where PM type tasks were handled by lower level AMs. I have observed separating AM and PM tasks into two separate departments just causes communication issues and lazy account people. Account people should have a good understanding of how much effort and time goes into a project. Project Managers are missing a lot of context so blind leading blind.
