Ogilvy peeps what is the policy on bonuses (non C-suite)? Have you received one lately? Not sure if it's regulated as WPP's stupid f'ing raise/promotion cycle.

I think there is discretion to award but it is tough. I know a cw/ad team that won a few lions and got $5k each.

Bonuses at WPP firms are discretionary and usually take at least 7 layers of approvals (US CFO is final say), and can only happen if and only if you're hitting numbers. Speaking from experience....

They still come from the pile of money WPP controls, but have less impact on the bottom line since it's on-off and not impacting benefits in any way, so given slightly more freely

I received one 10k bonus last year that was performance related, not tied to a schedule. But to echo the other comments...bonuses are gonna be hard to come by this year.

They tend to use them as incentives when they can't give a raise or promotion. They're not as regulated by WPP.

So be nice to finance.

I am currently a medical biller and coder that just graduated. I am currently in an entry level position because I am still studying to get certified. I will have a year's work of exp in July and will sign a contract for another year because my boss is training me in more I don't know.

I'm wondering what the pay is for someone in my position without certification. I live with family and want to afford to move out but I am single and only make $18/hr. Is that standard or am I being underpaid?

I am considering an offer for an AE role (UK-LDN) where the base is £42k & OTE is £70k. The Regional GM has verbally promised to move it up to £50k base if I perform well during the probationary period, but I can’t have it in writing on the contract. I’ve tried to counter offer but they said I’m currently maxing the salary band (L4). This role is exciting as I’d be the first UK employee, doing the full sales cycle & more but I had the same base and ote as an SDR. Is it too low? Do I take it?
