Paramount to Cut 1,000 Jobs Wednesday in First Round of Layoffs
Paramount Skydance aims to save $2 billion post-merger by cutting 1,000 U.S. jobs initially, with a second round expected to reach 2,000 layoffs according to sources.
- On Oct. 29, Paramount Skydance will lay off about 1,000 workers, Deadline and Variety confirmed.
- Executives pledged $2 billion in cost savings after the merger closed two-plus months earlier, with layoffs forming part of the post-close integration plan.
- Building on late-2024 reductions that trimmed rolls by about 15%, Paramount Skydance expects to eliminate around 2,000 jobs in the U.S. across planned rounds.
- Most affected staff are U.S.-based, with international divisions planning cutbacks in the coming weeks, and Paramount Skydance will report Q3 results on Nov. 10.
