Pros

I've been remote for the almost 7 years I've worked here. Smart people and great data/idenity solutions. Acquisition by Publicis was a breath of fresh air - Arthur Sadoun (Publicis CEO) is amazing - transparent, honest, really cares about people.

Cons

For all the positive things I can say about Publicis leadership and culture, it unfortunately doesn't trickle down to Epsilon. Epsilon senior leadership culture is toxic. They set objectives and let the teams duke it out which has created overlap among teams, internal competition for client attention and dollars and shady behavior when it comes to acknowledging good work, and more importantly, rewarding employees. Very limited opportunities for career growth at the mid to upper levels (VP and above).

Pros

There are no "Pros". Company is getting driven into the ground, quickly. Unlimited FTO - sure nice if you EVER get to take time off

Cons

Employees have been strung along last year (2025), told there would be Merit Increases -- should have been in March 2025 (didn't happen); then we're told it would be in July 2025 (didn't happen); then we're told would have a meeting in Sept 2025; there was a All Hands call and we we're told ONLY Top Performers would get a BONUS, and no one else. Then, in Jan 2026, there was money Allocated for FULL Merit Increases for April 2026. NO Senior Mgnt Communication. It's the end of March 2026 and we are told from our Managers (NOT Senior Mgnt) that there would NOT be any Merit Increases, supposedly "tabled" until July 2026. Time will tell.
