Marketing Oops
Key summary
In October 2026, Netflix announced the departure of Chief Content Officer Bela Bajaria, who joined in 2016 and oversaw global content strategy from 2023. She was succeeded by Peter Rice, formerly of Disney and Fox. Shortly after, Dan Lin, head of film since 2024, also left despite the release of KPop Demon Hunters. These changes follow a 2020 exit for Cindy Holland, who had worked at Netflix for 18 years. Co-CEO Ted Sarandos acknowledged content performance could improve further as US viewership growth slows. The departures reflect Netflix's 'Keeper Test' culture and focus on talent density, prioritizing current role fit over past achievements.
