Yeah, I referenced this in the FL Theme Park Reopening thread yesterday, but it's awful. A large chunk of the ones I heard about were folks who have been with the company for a long amount of time. Just heartbreaking stuff.
I would think middle management that survived the last round of cuts would be in trouble.
From what I've heard and am 100% sure on, quite a few supervisors were let go unfortunately and I've also heard recently that a lot of relief leads are no longer getting lead shifts at all.
Supervisors of the individual departments (for example, there are normally 5-6 supervisors per department, sometimes more (or less) depending on the size of the department). And UO has "Team Leads" who are in charge of making sure operations in a given area are running smootly. Relief leads are exactly what they sound like - relief for if a lead calls out on a certain day, but beyond that, they normally would be getting scheduled as leads as well, which it sounds like they aren't now.
The article I read said no hourly positions were cut in today's round.
Middle Management i'm thinking about wouldn't be hourly. It would be more like UO's Team Captains, who are a middle man between Team Leads and Supervisors.
Was it a case of they needed those positions to do the larger layoffs? I don't know how much hands on a manager would have in this situation.
There are no positions that are completely wiped out or anything. Each venue has more than one supervisor, so losing one doesn't mean they're without supervisors now or anything. From what I know, at least quite a few venues each lost one.
The positions aren't gone in the supervisors case. There's probably some people who have been working there for so long that they are becoming expensive and can be replaced by people hungry to advance, but also, most areas don't need as many supervisors as they have, simple as that (I know where I worked we had around 5-6, maybe more).
I’m betting they won’t be the only ones. People are going to be cooped up and bored Thanksgiving and Christmas this year (I know more than a few families not traveling), so I anticipate these doing fairly well.okay I got the right idea but the wrong movieDisney/Pixar’s ‘Soul’ Moving To Christmas Day Release On Disney+

Croods will be on PVOD definitely. Who knows if it'll go to AMC for the 17-day window or not, but it'll definitely be going on-demand for the family crowd.
