We had layoffs a few DAYS ago

NYC. There were about that many last year, that I know of.

WPP laid off 9,000 people last year and will probably need to lay off another 5,000 people to make their cost savings target. So it's a constant thing.

Expect a lot more layoffs within Omnicom this year.

I’m hearing more layoffs are coming

To media or creative ?

Ny office had so many last year. From February until maybe…. Sept? And then again this year

Gotta pay for all that milk somehow.
