Ogilvys financials are a mess. But perhaps the new Publicis CFO brought on will help there (?)

Too soon to tell, there’s new CEO at WPP that hasn’t officially started yet. That probably dictate or impact the fate of Ogilvy. I think new leadership at Ogilvy wouldn’t be a surprise, and that probably is about the last chance for Ogilvy IMO.

WPP is basically toast. Apparently Accenture is looking to buy. They will buy most of the company, maybe keep the Ogilvy brand (but maybe not).

Nope. If anything, I’d say Grey. Even with our losses, Ogilvy is doing better than VML, Grey and other WPP shops.

Serious question. Could Ogilvy really go under? Like go away? They just seem too big to just disappear.

like

Yes, it could (and likely will) become part of WPP Creative with the brand(s) slowly fading away. Or Ogilvy could be split out and sold off entirely to another company or PE. One thing is certain: it can’t continue to limp along as is with constant cuts and inept leadership who don’t know how to manage a business just their own egos.

My company just announced that they will stop matching for the 401K until 2021 (sigh). Do you think I should lower my investment percentage to get more liquid assets that I can use for buying an investment property at the end of the year and extra funds available for school as I return for masters? Or is there a better way to get returns?
