Disney Announces Hundreds of Job Cuts in HR and Technology Divisions
Disney is cutting several hundred jobs primarily in its human resources and technology divisions under CEO Josh D'Amaro, continuing workforce reductions initiated earlier this year. The latest layoffs are smaller than previous rounds in April and summer, which affected various units including Pixar, ESPN, and National Geographic. The film and television studios remain largely unaffected. These changes are part of Disney's broader efforts to reduce costs and adapt to challenges such as artificial intelligence, streaming competition, and declining box office revenue.
