Netflix confirmed it is laying off close to 1,000 employees, about 6% of its 16,000-person staff, with most cuts concentrated in product, technology, legal and human resources. Co-CEOs Ted Sarandos and Greg Peters told staff in an internal memo, first reported by The Wall Street Journal, that the company must be disciplined about prioritizing people and resources, while maintaining it remains on track to meet its full-year financial forecast.
