With the recent layoffs and RIFs across WPP, Publicis, Omnicom, and the broader industry, I know many people are navigating a difficult and deeply personal moment.
For those who are comfortable sharing, were you able to negotiate any part of your severance package? I am particularly interested in whether companies showed flexibility around severance duration, benefits coverage, bonus or commission payments, equity, or the timing and terms of separation agreements.
No need to share anything confidential or identify yourself publicly. My hope is simply to help people better understand what may be negotiable and advocate for themselves during an already challenging time.
