Whats with this passive voice shit? Its chooses to layoff, its not hit by shit

New Orleans was hit by hurricane Katrina in 2005. That's a fair characterization of events.

Disney's CEO is choosing to layoff. Disney is not the unwitting victim of circumstance.

Disney Employees Hit By Layoffs, A Couple Hundred Workers Cut

It must be in the style guide: Never use Person + active verb + person when talking about what rich people or cops do.

Disney has initiated layoffs

involuntary staff reductions

D’Amaro has overseen multiple rounds of layoffs

Poor Disney! If only they had made countless billions of dollars on their assorted IP over the last few years then maybe they wouldn't be so poor now that they have to layoff their beloved employees that they can no longer afford to pay.

Yeah but look at the bright side: Paying customers are being served ads now too! LMAO to whoever still pays for that.

I’m sure a lot of people have been “hit really hard” with the streaming subscriptions they canceled over Disney’s stupid bullshit.

trying to keep disney+ on life support.

Today’s cuts are said to impact a couple of hundred employees, largely in areas such as tech and HR, which is a smaller number than the two previous rounds of layoffs earlier this year.

Disney employs around 220-000- 230,000 people. So this is maybe 1% of staff, to put that in perspective.

"Hit" by layoffs. Damn layoffs burning the red light and just hitting poor little clueless disney.

trying to maintain the MCU slop generator, Disney+ no doubt.

The number of people able to afford to consume their product (and any other non-essential product) will continue to decrease as a result of these and similar decisions. Prices or ad revenue will need to increase for the people who can still pay for it in order to continue to maximize profits. Eventually the product hits a price (or annoyance) point which too few wish to pay and their revenue will collapse. People could accelerate this process by voting with their money. Withholding or paying is our individual vote for or against a corporate entity.
