@ay Leadership had already said they don’t expect all the $$$ to come from job cuts. There are plenty of other cost savings measures. That said, when all is said and done, I think the final numbers will have to be in the 10s of thousands due to the sheer amount of redundancy. 68k people in the combined Skydance Slack channel. Sigh…

Whatever the decision is, let’s get it over with so we can move forward. It’s difficult for anyone to stay engaged when we’re waiting to find out whether our jobs will continue or if we’re going to be let go.

I read they want to save 6 billion over the next 3 years. So that’s 2 billion a year. Average salary is 100k. Plus benefits etc looking at 150k. Thats over 13 thousand jobs. The 2 companies combined is about 50 thousand jobs. Look for the first round probably sooner than we think being about a 10% workforce cut. After that they can reevaluate where everything lands.

I don't think so. I don't believe DE would resort to mass layoffs in this kind of economy. Maybe a few hundred people at most.
