Rant: TBWA NY is not the same as TBWA LA. For those of you who really want to work here… dear god please don’t come to the NY office. Omnicom has fully taken over this office. Nothing cool about this office. The clients for the NY office are hot garbage…. Hilton, Carnival, Nissan, LG, Raytheon, Exxon and Henkel. No CCO still, because well this place is not creative. We are a consulting agency basically. Executive leadership cares more about their salary and kissing Omnicom’s ass…

I’ll never work for Omnicom again if I can help it

@Senior Project Manager 1 - benefits are awful, they don't invest in employees (no mentorship, no ERGs, no town halls). C Suite is nowhere to be found in the office.

Previous leadership ran that place into the ground and a Omnicom took it over. Good luck, OP.

like

These last few years Wren has made Omnicom into THE worst holding CO for employees in existence.

Considering how nefarious all holding cos can be, that says a lot.

Truth

When Chris was there, it was great. When Amy was there afterwards, wasn’t quite as great, but it was still good. Maybe your agency shouldn’t run its creative leadership out of town.?

I didn’t overlap with him long, but CS leads and agency operations were such a disaster that Chris had to do a lot by himself. Creative had to carry an insane load.

Not too much left to feel excited about from that client list. Hilton was pretty good for a while, but that ship seems to have sailed and almost all the good creative leaders left.

Not great, most should have been pushed out by now but you can’t when there is no CCO.

When in 2015 started bringing kids as MDs and presidents etc… to run the agency thinking it was a start up experiment…what do you expect..

What’s your work-life balance like? I feel like I’m constantly working after hours, always balancing multiple projects, hardly ever going through a phase where there isn’t a ton of critical initiatives going on.

Or can I actually find a senior PMM role that allows a bit more room to breathe?
