Pluspunten

Some nice colleagues, good benefits (flexi leave, free lunch).

Minpunten

Getting an above-inflaction pay rise is nearly impossible. Promotions not based on merit, but on who has been waiting the longest. I've been told repeatedly that I meet the requirements of the job above my own, but there's no way to get a promotion approved and others in the team have been waiting longer. People keep leaving and aren't being replaced. Worload is currently extremely high. Some senior management have a tendency to promote and progress the careers of people that think/behave exactly like them.

Pluspunten

Prior to the Omnicom takeover, employees had monthly wellness days,every conceivable public holiday off plus a full week in August off for employee appreciation and then between Xmas and New years the offices were closed. Salaries were satisfactory. They did try to staff teams accordingly, only to have them taken away.

Minpunten

vacation time and holiday time off is now downsized. Next to no remote employment. Back to office is 3 days and space in the offices is limited. Due to merger layoffs, more work for those who are left, and salaries are not as robust to lure new candidates. No warning on dept downsizing, they all say " I knew nothing"
