      What are pay increases like at OMD?

      OMD reviews

      The burnout is real.

      Project manager
      Current employee
      Chicago, IL
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      I like my immediate team and who I report to. We have a good rapport and the team dynamics is the only reason I have stayed this long.

      Cons

      There is entirely too much work for the headcount they have accounted for. Very overworked & undervalued by the company. Have never received a raise or pay increase the entire time I have worked here.

      crazy hours

      Pros

      nice dinners and free concerts

      Cons

      work till 2am and weekends sometimes, not affordable salary, no overtime, don't offer raises

      Good People - Can be long hours

      Digital marketing coordinator
      Former employee

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Pretty much everyone I worked with was friendly and competent. They were also helpful to me as someone brand new to digital marketing.

      Cons

      There is a culture of not saying no to clients so work can build up. Long hours or even random long nights were common. No salary increases until promotions but that's fairly standard in the industry.

      If Only I Could Rate The Business 0/5 Stars. WORST Company I've Ever Worked For.

      Activation executive
      Current employee

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - The Account Management/Media Planning team were spectacular to work with. - Learning experiences across various facets of media.

      Cons

      - While the company outwardly promotes DE&I, many individuals have experienced racism and homophobia from stakeholders, with HR failing to take such cases seriously. - Employees leaving the business may face hostility if they don’t follow an arbitrary resignation process. - The Head of Activation and HR Business Partner engaged in bullying tactics, sending aggressive and patronizing emails during the notice period. - The Activation Director prioritized avoiding conflict rather than addressing issues directly, often choosing to "keep the peace" instead of resolving problems effectively. - There was an unprofessional dynamic between the Activation Director and Activation Account Directors, including gossip about junior team members, which fostered a toxic work environment. - Many employees leave due to unrealistic expectations, overwork, and a lack of support. The company struggles with retention, especially at the junior and mid-levels. - Decision-making happens behind closed doors, leaving employees in the dark about company changes, team restructures, and career opportunities, including mandatory 3 days per week attendance and mandatory upskill with Activations and Investment, with zero pay increases. - Promotions are based on tenure, not merit; Hard work and strong performance are often overlooked in favor of how long someone has been with the company. Leading to unqualified stakeholders being promoted while high performers remain stagnant. - There is a clear "them vs. us" mentality between departments. Planning is well-supported and collaborative, while Activation is more isolated, with little effort to bridge the gap.

      Fun Company, Fast Paced, Little Room For Salary Increase

      Associate director, digital activation
      Former employee
      Los Angeles, CA
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The company itself is fun. Had a great time working there and met some great people. Senior managers on the account were very personable and created great environment. Since the agency is so large and part of Omicom, lots of benefits to working at the agency and opportunity to work on big name accounts. Also very dog friendly office was a plus.

      Cons

      Very little consideration taken for salary increases for internal promotions. No concern with large pay gaps between men and women, even when brought up with managers. Almost a $35K difference.

      Pros

      Lunch is subsidised, but considering the job pressure and no pay increase, it should really be free. Met some great people that I still speak today so thats a plus.

      Cons

      Workplace dominated by cliques, making it hard to feel welcome if you’re different

      !!Under paid!! There isn’t any bonus's, yearly salary increases and you’re unable to negotiate your salary once you already work within even for your promotion.
