First Class Action Lawsuit Filed
I’m sure it’s not the last https://deadline.com/2024/10/paramount-layoffs-lawsuit-class-action-1236106875/
Why pay the best people to leave, instead of trying to keep them?
Instead of throwing money at talented employees to keep them, we just paid so many of them to leave. Instead of valuing their skills and contributions, the leadership decided to cut them in layoffs that cost a fortune. It's ridiculous when you think... — read more
How are you faring, guys?
I mean what’s left of us. I became completely numb.
Paramount+ Subscriptions
For those laid off did they cut off your free Paramount+ subscription yet? They got me already
Don't be naive
These lawsuits will achieve absolutely nothing. This company - just like all the others that are constantly laying off employees - knows how to cover its tracks really well. The legal department is getting paid the big bucks to make sure stuff like... — read more
Does severance start before or after the WARN period?
Does anyone know if severance is supposed to start after your last day worked or separation date? Mine started after last day worked which technically would be during WARN and that doesn’t seem right so it might be a mistake.
Is severance in addition to WARN notice pay?
My office is in New York. My severance is showing Will I continue to get paychecks for 90 days?
Paramount International
Does anyone know if International will be hit in remaining planned layoffs of December?

Leadership lacks direction
This place just feels lost these days. It seems like we're moving without a clear plan. If you disagree, feel free to prove me wrong, but from where I’m standing, it looks like the leadership is just blindly making moves without any real direction... — read more

Paramount Streaming Town Hall tomorrow.
Does anyone know what the heck are they going to talk about?
Where is TR through all this? Leading from behind while his group got decimated.
He and VH are clueless to operating at this level or scale, and I struggle to imagine they did anything to stand up to the pep boys while their ankles were cut.
FU-K THIS PLACE
I was the only one on my team laid off despite surpassing every goal put in front of me and trying to make the brand better

If you didn’t get at least 8 weeks severance, call a lawyer
There’s some folks who weren’t offering their 60 days severance as required by CA WARN notice. (90 for New York). If you weren’t offered this because you were remote, it’s time to lawyer up. You also are signing away your rights to sue them if they... — read more
Paramount+ bloodbath is already stuff of legends in the industry
Great to be a leader among peers.
Be prepared for more work
Once again, guess who'll be expected to pick up the work of those who were laid off? It happens every single time. We get to do more work for the same pay. We'll have to break our backs to get it done, but nobody cares about that. They had to cut... — read more

Severance Advice…
For those impacted by the layoffs, you should ALWAYS ask for more severance than what you’ve initially been offered. I’ve seen many, many cases where people got significantly more than what they were offered, especially if you’re over 40 and... — read more
Anyone directly under CM laid off?
Or did he protect everyone on his side and sacrifice whole teams and divisions to keep his army?
What’s the pattern to the layoff?
Anyone have an idea of how the layoffs were decided? I can’t help but wonder how the decisions were made. I was among those on my team let go and we are all wondering “why us?”. Some of us agree it could be based on our tenure but even that doesn’t... — read more
Which phase are we in, again?
I can’t keep track anymore. I pretty much accepted that I will be out of job by the end of the year, so there’s that. Paramount+ was butchered - sorry, guys, for all of you who hoped to keep the job. Sorry for all of us because we have to go through... — read more

Union fade
Union puts out some janky letter patronizing the membership about being peeved? They'll do bupkis. Extortion! Company full of DEI lackey hires, even at the executive level. Running the company into the ground! Even Larry Tisch was better. The CBS... — read more
How are negative Chris McCarthy posts being deleted??
I posted asking how his group made it through unscathed again despite Chris being an incompetent CEO and somehow it was posted and removed. He and his team have had virtually no impacts yet he creates chaos every day.
Class Action Lawsuit
I’ll keep this brief. It seems there was a recurring pattern in how layoffs were decided, and it wasn’t JUST based on total compensation and we know performance wasn’t a huge deciding factor. From what I’ve observed, many of those affected didn’t... — read more

Any info on cuts under PW's org?
There's a thread regarding PW's scheduled Town Hall below, and the consensus seems to be that everyone under PW got an invite to the Town Hall on 10/2, so that in itself is not an indicator. But a few weeks ago right after the August cuts, PW sent... — read more
