Netflix’s employee morale crisis is reportedly only getting worse, with the streamer’s tech workers in Silicon Valley feeling increasingly alienated from leadership, especially following the controversy over Dave Chappelle’s comedy special The Closer.
At the heart of the dispute is the feeling among Netflix’s tech employees that their feedback about artistic or creative matters isn’t valued or even wanted. Engineers who complained about Chappelle’s comedy special said their criticisms — which consisted mostly of accusations of transphobia — were mostly ignored.
As a result, Netflix engineers feel the company has developed a schizoid personality — on one side is the Hollywood studio with its more traditional corporate culture; on the other is the Silicon Valley tech firm with its more relaxed atmosphere and culture of honest internal discourse.
