WPP - GroupM South Africa Review

Project manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

They empower their employees. I got PMP certified whilst working at GroupM and they paid for 50% of my tuition. The culture is relaxed and amazing. There is almost zero politics and a lot of transparency

Cons

No bonuses are awarded for performance . Salary increases are year on year just to balance inflation and aren`t guaranteed. That is because teh budget is always getting cut
