Thread regarding Disney layoffs

congrats on all that profit

arrrgh... how many times is disney gonna pull this garbage? they keep posting record profits then turn around and lay off hundreds of people like it’s just numbers on a spreadsheet... do they even care about the actual humans behind the work? nah, as long as the ceo gets his bonus and shareholders get their cut, everyone else is expendible...

it's the same tired excuse every time... economic headwinds or strategic realignment - whatever that even means! they restructure, consolidate, eliminate jobs, and call it progress! how is cutting entire departments in entertainment supposed to help your entertainment business?.

and don’t even get me started on how they always time it right after good earnings reports... wow, congrats on all that profit! now let’s slash more jobs for efficienccy... who’s running this show anyway?

EXACTLY!!! Late stage capitalism at its finest. We are all corporate slaves and paid actors that can be discarded at any time.

The shareholders are running it. You and I are cogs in the machine. The C staff responds to the noise and actions by the shareholders. If the stock tanks, the board takes action by doing a RIF on the C staff. So they are also trying to protect their jobs as well. Does it always make sense? no of course not. End of the day, everyone is just trying to protect themselves. 1,476 days until retirement.
