Is the ship sinking? Another 133 gone.

It’s honestly getting exhausting. Another 133 people cut at Fox, and for what? To juice the margins for one more quarter? We’re all sitting here watching the headcount drop, wondering who’s going to be left to actually run the day-to-day operations by the end of the year. I know several people who have been here for over a decade who just got the boot out of nowhere. The 'do more with less' mantra is officially turning into 'do everything with nothing.' I’m already putting feelers out to competitors, even though I know the entire media landscape is a dumpster fire right now. Has anyone heard if they are offering any decent packages, or are they just doing the bare minimum and showing people the door? This place used to be a career destination, but now I’m just looking for an exit strategy.

It’s a brutal cycle that seems to have no end in sight. Watching long-term colleagues get pushed out after years of loyalty is honestly demoralizing. When management prioritizes short-term stock performance over the actual people building the product, the internal culture inevitably turns toxic. You’re making the right move by looking elsewhere; there is no sense in waiting around to be the last person standing in a hollowed-out department. Prioritize your own stability and get out before the workload becomes completely unsustainable for those remaining behind.

The writing has been on the wall for a while now. This isn't just a seasonal adjustment; it's a fundamental shift in how they view their workforce as disposable line items. Everyone is replaceable in their eyes, and no amount of dedication or tenure protects you once the quarterly goals are missed. If you’ve already started networking, keep that momentum going and don't look back. Companies like this rarely reward loyalty, so stop waiting for things to get better and find a place that values your actual contribution rather than just your salary line.
