Netflix London office cuts affect 2% to 3% of staff, including Anna Mallett
Netflix has cut 2% to 3% of staff at its London office, which has several hundred employees.
Production vice president Anna Mallett is among those affected by the job cuts.
She oversaw physical production in the U.K. and local-language production across several regions, and joined Netflix in 2020.
Her work covered shows and films including Baby Reindeer and Adolescence, as well as later seasons of Money Heist.
The London cuts also affect people in communications, publicity and other roles.
They follow Netflix's cuts of around 1,000 jobs worldwide, about 6% of its workforce, in October.
Netflix says its international content is performing well, while co-CEO Ted Sarandos said the company needs better execution in the U.S. The company has not announced further changes to its international strategy; its co-CEOs have said no fundamental shift is needed.

What people are saying
The business and the business flywheel are working. There’s no need for a fundamental shift in strategy,
We do need better execution in the U.S. Our content around the world is largely working. … The U.S. is also working. It’s just not growing as fast as it could or as fast as we’d like.
We had some really solid doubles and triples this year. But the other territories count on some of those titles being home runs so they’ll travel around the world. So we’re really focusing on that execution.
