The Walt Disney Company recently announced significant job cuts affecting multiple business units including Pixar and National Geographic. Approximately one hundred employees were laid off from Pixar, impacting both production and operational roles. National Geographic experienced reductions across its cable network, editorial teams, and operations departments. Other divisions such as Disney Entertainment Television also saw around ninety position eliminations. ABC News was among the units affected, with roughly twelve staff members losing their jobs. The layoffs reflect a broader restructuring effort led by CEO Josh D’Amaro who emphasized the need for operational streamlining. This decision follows similar cost-cutting measures implemented earlier in the spring regarding ESPN and NFL partnerships.
