Ad Agency Ogilvy cans 90 from both coasts

December 2, 2009

We just got a tip that wpp group plc ad agency Ogilvy just laid off 90 people from East and West coast. … we cannot verify this yet as from what we understand, pink slips are flying at multiple locations simultaneously. Our understanding is that many of these people were working on the same project hence the “coordinated attack” to stop them from taking to each other.. or one office giving a heads up to another.

Story is developing, but on face value it appears that Ogilvy is getting really good at firing people.
