BOSTON Hill, Holliday, like many of its recession-rocked peers, has cut staff in an effort to control costs and stay competitive.

A representative at the Interpublic Group agency here said it trimmed 14 employees — about 3 percent of its staff — late last week “as part of a belt-tightening effort for 2009.” The agency still employs more than 400 people at its headquarters in Boston. This is the shop’s second reduction in recent months, following a layoff of 20-plus staffers last December.
