Pluspunten

- A few individuals genuinely try to improve the culture. - Exposure to some well-known clients (though projects themselves may not be inspiring).

Minpunten

- Omnicom drains the agency of energy and authenticity, it’s soul-sucking and bureaucratic. - Leadership is ego-driven. Senior titles often believe their way is the only way, and collaboration suffers. - The company still clings to work and reputation from decades ago - HR is ineffective and at times unresponsive. Their support is almost non-existent when issues arise. The worst I’ve ever experienced at a company. - Client work is generally uninspiring. - Company culture is outdated. “Culture” is equated with a Thursday drinks trolley rather than building meaningful connections or inclusivity. - Pay freezes have lasted over two years with no transparency - Office policy feels performative: mandatory 3 days in-office, but staff were initially scheduled randomly across days so it was clear this was just to support the canteen - not to foster actual teamwork. - Overall lack of care for employees other than the ones at the top.

Pluspunten

-Fun, smart people -Big name clients and (some) interesting projects -Decent work-life balance (but this is not true for everyone/ every role)

Minpunten

-Lots of change and many rounds of layoffs in the last year+ -Many big-egoed senior leaders who are difficult to work with and do not care about team's development -Projects can become very rinse and repeat; ultimately most clients have the same fundamental brand problems -Recent austerity measures due to IPG acquisition + internal politics = VERY slow to promote people -Once you reach a certain level, your growth maxes out unless you are buddies with the CEO and able to get into a global leadership position -Mandated 3 days/week in-office for ALL employees regardless of role, situation, or location
