Netflix Announces Largest Layoffs Since 2022, Cutting 1,000 Jobs Globally
Netflix plans to cut about 1,000 jobs, roughly 6% of its workforce, in its largest layoffs since 2022. The reductions will mainly affect product, technology, legal, and human resources teams. This move comes amid slowing subscriber growth, weakening viewer engagement, and increased competition in the streaming market. Co-CEOs Greg Peters and Ted Sarandos emphasized prioritizing resources for high-impact areas while reaffirming the company’s commitment to growth and innovation ahead of its upcoming quarterly earnings report.
