News Bob Iger outlines the need to transform the Walt Disney Company resulting in 7000 job losses and $5.5 billion in cost savings

[FigmentFan82]

Retirement while someone is still able is a fairly recent concept.

srsly! he should have been rotting in a retirement home by now!

 

[Andrew C]

The one layoff nobody will mourn.

On the other hand, this means Marvel as a standalone unit no longer exists. Feige and Buckley have total control now.

I don't know his background...what did he do that was so awful?

 

[Disney Analyst]

He wanted to fire Kevin Feige, which Iger prevented.

 

[Horizons '83]

My Dad was 82 when he retired. People in the 80's still working is because... well... they love their job.

He’s conservative

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

Exactly. By the time the sequel hits theaters, there is a lot of support from fandom who picked up on it from not just the first theaterical run but opportunities on home vide/streaming/spin offs.

Don’t convince me!

Convince the Polish finance minister…

Who can now add Hollywood tentpoles to his list of misunderstanding completely accolades…

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

Wait a minute…are we gonna NOT say the reason on perlmutter???

It’s as plain as day…like a WDW upcharge.

Come on. Not sad he’s gone…but the truth should have this day and EVERY day

Perlmutter net worth is $6 billion. At 80 years old he perhaps enjoys working.

Same reason as Roy?

I meant the reason he’s out.

And no…it won’t hurt him.

But this isn’t your standard deck clearing

 

[Piebald]

He's good friends with TFG.

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

Same reason as Roy?

Sorta…but Roy technically “won”

And there’s a lot of reason to believe Roy was a sick man at that time

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

He's good friends with TFG.

He’s good friends with a couple problematic people for Sweater Bob…

And the national clown is the LESSER of the two

I do like that some execs like Richard Hayne and Richard Kinder In their companies both earn an annual salary of $1.

At the risk of sounding "political" this is everything that is currently wrong w/ this country.

Some who join the BBC , Billionaire Boys Club take more risks than the average Joe , experience success and failures and kudos to them who join the club.
