I've got bad news. That dream job you're celebrating? It may not last forever. A recent letter by Christine Collins, an acquiring assistant editor at Disney, highlights an emotional journey many are all too familiar with. Her heartfelt experience of starting her first job and now facing her first layoff captures the dual spectrum of emotions employees at Disney are experiencing. Disney has announced over 300 job cuts in the US as part of their cost-reduction strategy. These layoffs span across corporate positions in legal, human resources, finance, and communications, provoked by the financial strains of adapting to a changing landscape influenced by streaming services and the pandemic's blow to box office revenue. The reality is, the corporate world can be uncertain and demanding. Once you navigate these turbulent waters, you'll realize that resilience and adaptability are taught in ways no manual can capture. So should you shy away from embracing new career opportunities? Of course not. The pursuit is magnificent. #CareerJourney #JobLoss #Disney #Layoffs #Resilience #Adaptability #CareerOpportunities #JobMarket #CorporateLife #EmotionalIntelligence #CareerTransition #WorkplaceChallenges

Losing your first job can be a heart-wrenching experience, and when it's at a company you've dreamed of working for, it's even more impactful. This is the reality for Christine Collins, an acquiring assistant editor at Disney, whose emotional letter about her first job and first layoff has gone viral. Imagine investing your energy and enthusiasm into your first big break, only to face an unexpected layoff. Christine's letter has resonated deeply with many, highlighting the personal and professional toll such an experience takes. This is not an isolated case. In May, Pixar reduced its workforce by 175 employees, about 14% of its staff. By July, 140 workers at Disney Entertainment Television were also let go. These layoffs are part of Disney’s broader strategy to manage resources and costs more effectively, aiming to cut $7.5 billion, as stated by CEO Bob Iger. The entertainment industry as a whole is grappling with similar challenges, with companies like Paramount also making significant cuts. However, this is also a time of reflection and resilience for those affected. Navigating through these tough times requires immense strength and adaptability. For Christine and many others, this is not just a story of loss but also one of rediscovery and new beginnings. It’s crucial for all of us to support and uplift each other during such difficult transitions. Whether you’re a seasoned professional or just starting your career, remember to keep pushing forward, adapt, and look for new opportunities to grow. What are your thoughts on the emotional and professional impacts of such layoffs?

𝐈’𝐦 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐈 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩. After 33 years in the entertainment business, including a 25-year stint at Warner Bros. as the Head of Global Category Management, I’m on the search for a new role. The big WB layoff wave hit many of us hard last year, and it’s been a rollercoaster since then—hundreds of applications and many interviews. I’m not one to ask for help often, but I know the power of this community. If you’ve got leads on roles in category management or business insights or know someone who does (it can be in entertainment, retail or CPG) I’d be super thankful for a recommendation. Here’s how you can lend a hand: 𝐋𝐞𝐭’𝐬 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭 on LinkedIn if we’re not already friends. 𝐒𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐦𝐞 𝐚 𝐦𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐠𝐞 with job leads or intros. 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐦𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐠𝐞 or send it to a friend to get more visibility. Big thanks for your support. Let’s make something happen! #OpenToWork #EntertainmentIndustry #Retail #CPG #Insights
