Ad Agency CP+B mails out 60 pink slips

February 5, 2009

Ad Agency Crispin Porter + Bogusky has laid off 60 of it’s employees noting the economy is bad according to Media Bistro These 60 employees are just a fraction of what’s happening overall in the economy. As hundreds of thousands of Americans are thrown out into the street each week, 10 million of us are sitting on unemployment.

What CP+B did is exactly what virtually every company has been doing, firing their staff in an effort to stay alive during this depression.

From their e-mail “we hope that we will not have to do this again.” … notice it’s not a promise… not even close. It’s a rough economy out there people, these 60 staffers will be dumped into a job market rife with double digit unemployment. Meaning their chances of finding a new job with similar pay are slim to none for quite an extended period of time.

His biggest problem is he’s coding websites in HTML….

    [...] From reports sent to us by former Crispin Porter + Bogusky employees, plans to still include Domino’s pizza on demand, free snowboard rentals and “disruptive thinker travel” in the form of a Wi-Fi-equipped biodiesel company bus that runs regular routes around Boulder. These expensive projects will continue, but not for the 60 people fired from the advertising agency as we reported on the 5th. [...]
