Netflix to face layoffs



Netflix is bracing for its next round of layoffs as the streaming giant looks to cut costs in the wake of its stock troubles.

Impacted staff are expected to be told at the end of the week. It’s unclear what departments are going to be hit, but sources suggest that the cuts could be similar in size to the round of reductions undertaken in May. At that time, Netflix laid off 150 employees and dozens of contractors and part-time workers. When those cuts were announced, Netflix said that there would be other rounds of pink-slipping in 2022. Netflix maintains a global work force of roughly 11,000 staffers.
 
Not surprising. Viewership is most likely way down post-pandemic and as summer arrives, and people switch off the TV or streaming device to go outside or take a vacation. Also, Netflix has lots of competition since every broadcast and cable network seemingly has a subscription streaming service now, in addition to Apple, Amazon, Hulu, YouTube and a host of others, most all of them offering original content along with older movies/seasons/episodes of shows.
