NBCUniversal is reducing its global streaming technology workforce by several hundred employees. These layoffs primarily affect engineering and quality assurance roles within the streaming division. While most impacted staff are at Sky, Comcast's European media entity, some US-based NBCUniversal employees will also be affected. This move comes as NBCUniversal prepares for a spin-off from Comcast and faces industry-wide cost-cutting pressures. The company stated these changes are intended to optimize structure and resources for future growth.
