DNEG employees are ‘super pissed off’ at the company’s decision
One DNEG employee said the company’s move has made everyone working there “super pissed off.” They added, “We feel like DNEG is not offering anything to compensate but are instead pushing all the weight and risk on the employee.” Another employee accused the company of “exploiting workers.” In a statement provided to Deadline, DNEG said the decision was not one that the company “made lightly.”
“DNEG is not immune to the impact of the current industry disruption, and we are not alone,” the statement reads. “These challenges are impacting all filmmaking departments, and our global clients are facing suspension or postponements of projects that represent meaningful revenue to all companies and professionals working in this industry.
