迪士尼预计裁员数千人:今年最大一轮,部分部门被要求削减两成开支

据《Variety》与彭博社11月3日报道,华特迪士尼公司(The Walt Disney Company)预计将裁员数千人,这将是该公司今年规模最大的一轮裁员。报道称,部分部门的管理人员已被要求拿出年化削减20%开支的方案,可通过裁减岗位、削减其他开支或两者结合来实现。
报道称,本轮调整预计波及电视网络与电影制片厂等多个业务部门,各部门受影响程度不一,具体裁员人数与执行时间尚未公布,迪士尼公司对相关报道不予置评。首席执行官 Josh D'Amaro 计划把节省下来的一部分资金重新投入影视节目、技术、主题公园与邮轮业务。
这将是迪士尼今年以来的第四轮裁员:今年4月,公司裁减约1,000个岗位;此后数轮裁员又涉及企业职能、人力资源与信息技术等部门。迪士尼在上一个财年结束时约有231,000名员工,公司定于11月17日公布第四财季与全年业绩。

Disney Expected to Lay Off Thousands of Staffers in Biggest Round of Cuts This Year
The Walt Disney Company is expected to lay off thousands of staffers in what would be its biggest round of job cuts this year, Variety and Bloomberg reported on November 3. Managers in some divisions have reportedly been asked to identify annualized cost savings of up to 20%, which can be reached through job eliminations, other expense reductions, or a combination of both.
The cuts are expected to reach multiple divisions, including television networks and the motion picture studio, with some parts of the company affected more than others. No precise headcount or timetable has been announced, and Disney declined to comment. Chief Executive Josh D'Amaro reportedly aims to reinvest part of the savings into film and television programming, technology, theme parks and the cruise business.
The move would be Disney's fourth round of layoffs this year: the company eliminated about 1,000 roles in April, and later rounds reached corporate functions, human resources and information technology teams. Disney had about 231,000 employees at the end of its last fiscal year and is scheduled to report fiscal fourth-quarter and full-year results on November 17.
