What is the salary like at OMD?

Work life balance, great company culture, fair salary, great benefits, generous holiday allowances

Nothing major I can think of

There are some great people, especially juniors, who work extremely hard despite low pay and a terrible environment

It took me over a year to recover once I finally left OMD UK. I was constantly gaslit, had goalposts changing, was told I was doing a great job one day and told I wasn’t delivering at all the next. The PTSD from my time there is real! As a manager I did performance reviews for a large team but had the reviews changed for the worse as leadership didn’t want to give raises or promotions - except for their favourites, ofc! The workloads are intense, but leadership won’t care and are happy to leave junior employees to pick up the pieces and manage things alone, without any support. Pay discrepancies are wide - in my team I had managers working on the same client, doing the same job but with 10k+ difference in pay. The staff are very white and middle class.

Good pay when considering other agency salaries and immediate team is great.

Unorganised way of working and lack of client engagement

they worked with huge clients

The salaries are very low, the working hours much more than 40 hours per week and unpaid, the work environment is toxic

Meetings and connecting with people Media owners and their perks High valued clients

Lack of management within my team High turnover = disruption Low pay = lots of overtime and no reward from company

Typical agency benefits, access to good clients, easier to get jobs at other agencies, opportunity to travel

Poor culture, minimal to zero opportunities for growth, low pay

Good pay, great people, amazing benefits

Hard work is not always recognized

Great team, supportive managers, great salary package and benefits

Not on agency side but the client side was really hectic to work with

HIgh churn allows for greater exposure to higher level responsibilities

Pay is not a livable wage in NYC, or any metropolitan area with the long hours, pay is belong minimum wage.

Good place to start your career to build up your knowledge as OMD is a big agency with plenty of resources (but also depends on your team) Very friendly colleagues Workload depends on your client and team

The salary is low comparing to other agencies Work load was super high - (this depends on the client you work with) Company politics
