Disney (DIS) is once again trimming the payroll under new CEO Josh D'Amaro, who is continuing his efforts to reduce expenses and refocus the entertainment giant. The latest layoffs come as the company also reportedly considers restructuring its television operations. Can Disney find ways to cut costs while still investing enough to remain competitive in movies, television, and its signature theme parks? That’s the question facing DIS stock shareholders today.
Deadline reports that Disney's latest workforce reductions will affect approximately “a few hundred” employees, mostly from technology and human resources. This marks the company's third round of layoffs since D'Amaro succeeded Bob Iger in March 2026.
