Pay is great, too bad for layoffs

Editorial

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Pay is great, unfortunately, layoffs came for most of us. Depending on the team and manager, the work could be really fun.

Cons

General instability of the times. Can't really fault Netflix but maybe if they stopped putting in $$ for big-budget films that are formulaic and bad, that could have saved some of our jobs. There are some great shows on the platform but also a ton of crap. Who greenlights all these projects? It reminds me of that one Oprah meme, except someone on top is saying yes to every production deal that comes through its doors.
