HBO Max employees, how to do you see new ATT deal? how does it affect HBO Max? #hbo #warnermedia #att
the deal is only going to be done mid 2022 nothing to be scared at this moment
Okay...... but teams and management functions differently when they know everything can change a year from now. In corporate strategy, some of the longer term projects are on the back burner. It’s scary when you can’t realistically plan for the future. So much of media work is forward looking. That has impact on the team culture. When the team culture sucks, high performing people leave.
Will there be more layoffs coming at HBO?
Eventually, yes
Did Warner ever finish consolidating all the various video streaming platforms it owned?
Another reorg and Jason kilar is leaving. I feel so bad for HBO employees who have endured so much
What happens with Discovery team? Will they have layoffs too?
We’re still waiting to get internal communication. You know as much as we do right now. Monday All hands has been pushed back. I’m absolutely frightened. We’ve had two re-orgs in the last year, excluding this one. Such a precarious place to work
Sorry to hear that
There’s a reorg happening every year since last 3-4 years within AT&T, Xandr and WarnerMedia (after the acquisition).
