Had this happen one year going into thanksgiving…. Was awesome seeing my family while staring into the distance like a zombie. Hang in there.
Appreciate you, sorry that happened
More cruel would have been if they made you work through the holidays and then cut you loose on Day 1 back at the office. Still, sorry to hear it. Honestly think next year is going to be very busy. Blue skies ahead. Oh, and also, F them.
Thanks for sharing some optimism. And yes that definitely would have stung as well
Wtf I’m so sorry
I was laid off before the holidays years ago. My disdain for the job and the agency outweighed my anxiety about finding something else, so the holidays were actually nice. In January I landed a freelance gig that became full time and changed the trajectory of my career (and life) for the better. Hang in there. There always demo before the build.
Wow that’s awful. I was part of the November layoffs so I know how it feels.
Happy to connect if you would like to talk, want to bounce ideas, need a connection, etc.
Hope you can use the time to unplug and be with family. It’ll be tough but I really feel like you dodged a bullet; Groupe is going through a significant culture shift and I think you’re better off without them.
Agencies in Detroit used this evil. So sorry
Try to enjoy the holiday and forget it as best you can. There’s nothing you can do during the break anyways. Happened to me too. It’ll pick up
Was laid off this year too from Publicis but was just offered a role at WPP. Let me know if you need a referral
Brutal, so sorry :(
I was laid off from Publicis this year too. What's your area of focus? Maybe someone can help in here!
So sorry, that’s horrible
I’m so sorry, I hope you’ve been able to enjoy your holidays at least a little bit.
If it helps at all, my last 3 jobs have all started in Jan/Feb because scopes are just being solidified so jobs are opening (hopefully)
