THREE PUBLICIS HEALTH AGENCIES RECOGNIZED BY AD AGE AS BEST PLACES TO WORK
Heartbeat, Digitas Health, and Razorfish Health were named to the 2023 edition of the prestigious industry list
New York, NY—January 23, 2023—Three Publicis Health full-service creative healthcare agencies were named among the winners on the 2023 Ad Age Best Places to Work list, an annual ranking of advertising, marketing and media companies that lead the pack in factors ranging from pay and benefits to corporate culture and leadership.
Ad Age Best Places to Work 2023 honors 50 companies that stood out over the past year as the ad business met with the challenges of a weakening economy, changing media market and a continued tight talent pool. The winners reflect the highest overall numerical scores based on an analysis of questionnaires submitted by employers and survey responses from their employees.
“The tight labor market forced every business in the industry to compete for talent, and the 2023 Best Places to Work winners proved the value of understanding what employees want today,” said Dan Peres, president and editor-in-chief of Ad Age. “Companies will face challenges this year with the economy and ongoing effects of the pandemic, but winning workplaces understand that taking care of employees is central to business success.”
Among the winners in the 200-plus employee category: Heartbeat, Publicis Health’s agency for challenger brands, ranks No. 2; Digitas Health, the connected health agency, ranks No. 9; and Razorfish Health, the agency fueling modern medicine, ranks No. 22.
“Across all our agencies, Publicis Health delivers superior employee experiences, continued learning and growth opportunities, while also paying people competitively and providing comprehensive benefits which support overall wellbeing,” said Pamela Berman, Chief Talent Officer, Publicis Health. “The fact that Heartbeat, Digitas Health, and Razorfish Health have now received this award multiple times demonstrates that we truly care about our people and treat them with integrity at every turn.”
Publicis Health offers a robust package of industry-leading benefits, including a flexible time off policy, 12 weeks of paid parental and family care leave, family forming assistance, gender-affirming medical care, tuition reimbursement, and matching charitable contribution, among other benefits.
In addition, as part of Publicis Groupe, employees have access to the Work Your World program, enabling staff to work remotely from any Publicis office globally for up to six weeks/annually as well as 14 employee-led and company-supported business resource groups (BRGs) dedicated to fostering workplace belonging across an array of identities and affinities.
In producing Best Places to Work 2023, Ad Age’s scoring system factors in employee responses on topics including pay and benefits and seven other core focus areas (75% of the score) and a company’s policies and practices on areas including pay and benefits, work/life balance, recruitment, training and development (25% of the score).
Ad Age produced Best Places to Work 2023 in partnership with Best Companies Group, a research firm specializing in identifying and recognizing great places to work. The competition was open to agencies, ad tech firms, brand or corporate marketing departments or groups and in-house agencies of marketers.
In addition to Ad Age Best Places to Work 2023, Publicis Health and its agencies have been recognized by RippleMatch for excellence in early career programming, on MM+M’s Agency 100 list of top healthcare agencies, and received a perfect score on the Human Rights Campaign’s Corporate Equality Index.
