I heard Euro is down to just a few employees left in their "digital" office here in Portland. Apparently they only have two interactive clients, and one of them doesn't plan on renewing with them for 2011.
Razorfish practices absolutely zero discretion when hiring. When things were still hot in 2008, they stole a bunch of digital project managers from the agency I worked for at the time, gave them all exhorbitant increases (as in over $30K in some cases), and then laid them all off about 6 months later. And no, not all agencies are like that by any means.

I haven't heard anything as of yet. Was it specifically in Portland?

Odd...RF has been in hire-mode for the last few months.
ReplyDeleteAnd Euro's still around. They're actually in Jive Software building on SW Stark now.
RF hires and lays off people so often, it's a constant churn + burn. Are all agencies like that??

ReplyDeleteHey, it's 3 years later, but I can confirm that some were laid off yesterday.
