I’m getting paid better than I ever have been now that I’m at Publicis but I still say run awayyyyy. Don’t come here, save yourself

IPG all the way. If you’re mid management, good luck getting a raise at Publicis

It’s like saying which place is it better to flip burgers at - McDonalds, Wendy’s or Arby’s. All the same.

WPP has horrible insurance

likehelpful

Publicis had great benefits when I was there. The health insurance was great and their 401k was decent

like

IPG has been less stingy and blatant bureaucracy than Publicis in my experience.

I hear WPP pays very well but the difference of salaries can range wide in the same role depending on your negotiations and immigration status (aka if you can be taken advantage of or not)

Not WPP

Dentsu gives 4mos paid maternity leave, which is amazing

like

As a single, reasonably healthy person, I haven’t noticed much difference on the insurance side between the HoldCos. WPP has the strictest rules about approval for high salaries. As for the rest ... eh ... can’t say I noticed much difference. I’m sure others will have different experiences

ECD 1, I disagree. OMD’s health insurance is pretty crappy unless you don’t actually need to use it often. Mid-level raises are a joke.

like

Ecd1 - talk to your financial planner. That employee stock purchase plan isn’t a good deal.

Also, yes, their healthcare sucks. Unless, of course, you love calling insurance companies to get them to pay for stuff like annual checkups.

no one should ever do omnicoms espp, dumb benefit

IPG. Negotiate when you first go in, raises do not come easy

Publicis is better than Omnicom. But they both suck.

like

Publicis have good PTO: 15 vacay + 9 flex + day before every standard holiday + unlimited sick. But no summer Fridays or time off between Dec 26-31. And French payrises ($0) Maybe it all ends up same...

helpful

Which Publicis agency were you at? I was at PubNY and always had Christmas break off (and that was from when Linda days to current leadership), 4-5 Summer Days (they changed the policy that it didn't need to be a Friday), increased to 5 Personal days from 3, and then PTO which increased per years spent (If you negotiate for more days as part of hiring package you may not get access to this benefit)

Omnicom. They have an employee stock purchase plan as well

Omnicom is the worst. One week paid maternity leave, need I say more.

TBWA2 still more than the national minimum requirement 😂 #vote

Dentsu has 4 months off for maternity OR paternity leave (anyone who ‘welcomes a child into their life’). Everything else is pretty standard but you get to work from home once a week.

I have a partner who routinely ignores emails or responds to them several weeks later. He has to approve every single document sent to the client or the court, which means you have a physically go to his office to ask him to review something. Half of the time you go to meet with him in person, he’s either on a call or otherwise busy. I find that this basically creates more work and makes meeting deadlines extremely difficult. Is this normal?
