Here is something that nobody will tell you in regards to $wbd at a worldwide level on the corporate end (not creatives such as writers, directors, etc.):
Nobody wants to work with them.
The company is volatile, layoffs happen left and right.
It is not a secure, stable job.
Regardless of how much money #TheFlash does, the fact of the matter is that anyone working at HR of the company is struggling to find people to join them.
Because everyone looks at them, at how management changes on a whim. It is a high risk going to work with them.
Box office aside, the focus the company has in regards to their products and lineup changes practically on a yearly basis. You can be working for the streaming department and all of the sudden, Zaslav says they don't care about your division.
