ViacomCBS to Lay Off Additional 100 Staffers As Merger Streamlining Continues
Variety ^ | 11/18/2020 | Elaine Low

ViacomCBS is shedding another 100 employees this week across the company as the merger between Viacom and CBS — and the resulting streamlining efforts that have followed — continue to ripple through the combined corporation.

The layoffs impact a range of departments across ViacomCBS, from sales to shared services such as finance and legal, per a source familiar with the situation. Several of the impacted divisions are reducing their teams by one or two employees, while others are being more greatly affected. Personnel at the company’s New York and Los Angeles offices will be impacted, though it is unclear which other bureaus of the global company will also see layoffs this week.

ViacomCBS has been reducing its personnel since February, with cuts over the last nine months impacting a widespread range of divisions, including CBS Entertainment, CBS News, CBS Sports, CBS Studios, CBS Television Studios, Pop TV, MTV, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon, Pop and Smithsonian.

They could save money and have a better product if they let the staff of CBS This Morning and the evening news, NorDUH O’Donnell, go.
