Any updates for Sky employees under Global Product org ? We’ve been completely left in the dark about what’s going to happen to us. Are engineers within Sky’s Fraser division likely to be affected more , given that this division is moving to Comcast?

Unclear. A number of Sky roles particularly under Fraser will move to the Comcast side upon the split, but whether they are moved now on the books and thus counted as Comcast cuts is unknown by us peons. If they are, then there might be impacts today. If not, then likely not. But that's speculation. And we will see if Fraser makes it through the day himself.
In regards to the physical products Comcast makes, yes, they’ll likely be impacted if we move to white-labeled products instead of these custom, over engineered products that customers don’t care about. The ROI for in-house product dev. doesn’t make sense. Let’s see where this goes.
unlikely to be impacted
Division consolidation isn’t driving changes in that org, but yes expect significant cuts. It’s not going to be good
