am i wrong but doesnt the article say the dude worked at "eyeline" which seems to be consistently described in a quick search as a "netflix owned vfx company" which would not really make this guy a "netflix employee". no more so that somebody working at "x" is now a "spacex" employee. Eyeline has its own ceo and presumably culture, but "rando vfx company you've never heard of fires a guy" doesnt grab headlines i guess...
no comment on the actual content or context just a nit on everyone saying this was netflix did a thing... this seems like netflix owned company eyeline did a thing based on the actual article and a couple
of the eyeline press releases from when they got bought and recently rebranded.
- dlcarrier 2mo agoIf you work for a wholly owned subsidiary, the parent company has complete control and the executives have no further hindrance to hiring or firing you than they would ton anyone else, anywhere else within the rest of the company. The CEO is always beholden to the board, and if the board of the wholly owned subsidiary isn't literally the same board as the parent company, then everyone the board is appointed by the parent company.
