Publicis: 10% of IT Staff Laid Off

By Matt Van Hoven 

The hits just keep on coming. A tipster sent us this tidbit about Publicis Groupe North America:

“(PGNA) laid off 10 percent of their IT team today. The division does IT from Bromley to Zenith in the Pub Groupe Universe.”

I have no idea how many people that is, maybe some of you could elaborate, extrapolate, probate.

Update: “ReSources IT is the ‘company’ that does all the IT for PubGroupe. It’s been a mess for years, with 2 ‘re-organizations’ in 2 years. Today’s 40 employees (including myself) is just the next attempt for the IT division to prove to their brands (Leo Burnett, Starcom, Saatchi, et. all) they are trying to be progressive.’ In reality, PGNA’s IT is backward, messed up in ‘process’ and can’t get things done. Hate that I lost my job, happy I am gone from there.”
