It will be hard times for some employees at Warner Bros. Entertainment as moves to cut overhead costs will result in layoffs of about 10% of the company's workforce.

According to Variety:
Warner Bros. Entertainment is expected to cut as many as 900 to 1,000 jobs worldwide as part of a studio-wide cost-cutting move, according to people familiar with the company’s plans. The estimated reductions would amount to more than 10% of the studio’s 9,000-person workforce. 
The cuts will be made in late October or early November.
