Netflix to Cut 6% of Staff, Roughly 1,000 Jobs

This is a cost-structure signal rather than a demand story: the cuts land in product, technology, legal and HR, the kind of overhead that scales with headcount rather than with subscribers. The read-across matters most for other platform businesses carrying similar post-2022 bloat, and for the streaming labor market, where specialized roles are now competing for fewer seats. Whether this stays a one-off repricing of corporate functions or becomes the first of several rounds is the open question.
