nterpublic Group (IPG) has reduced its workforce by 3,200 employees this year, including 800 in September. 2026 will be even worse. The folks running the company are clueless and there is a ton of greed. That's my opinion and I do not see things changing any time soon.

Publicis seems to be a sinking ship. Over 400 to 450 people have been laid off in less than a year. Today 100 to 150 MORE people were laid off.
