@1spw, they are cutting that many because they have combined two content organizations into one.

In an interview with Deadline.com, Kilar explains this and says that since their is now one position where there used to be two, one person has to go, and he again apologizes.

The Wallstreet Journal is also reporting that WM will let over 500 employees go, beginning today, based on insider information.

WarnerMedia is one of the best investments AT&T has done. I can't see them cutting that many. That division is very profitable, as the games division owns Fortnite, a large stake in Roblox, and the Gran Tourismo franchise.

Dang sorry to those that get cut. And cancel your services ASAP! Tv, internet, phones...etc. You’ll get billed full rates if you don’t!

$85 Billion in debt. JS ran it down over the last several years. And got a promotion. Kilar gets left holding the bag. WM will go the same direction that our previous acquisitions of Wayport, Alienvault, [insert failed business model name here]. In the interim, we are treating our core clients in wireline and mobility like r—ded step-children. They are leaving in droves too. The future ain't bright for the Death Star's crew.

That's what you get when you're on Team Death Star. Stankey profits and everybody else pays. Sorry for your loss Warner.
