4,000 jobs | Ad giant Omnicom to shed thousands of roles after $13bn takeover

Omnicom will cut more than 4,000 jobs and consolidate long-standing agency brands after completing its recent $13 billion acquisition of Interpublic Group.

The company said the move is tied to an industry confronting rapid shifts in how creative work is produced and delivered, as artificial intelligence expands its reach and tech platforms such as Meta increase access to automated advertising tools.
