Oct 21 — Comcast Corp is planning a ​significant number of job cuts as part of a restructuring ‌of its cable-TV, broadband and wireless businesses, ⁠Bloomberg News reported ​on Wednesday, citing ⁠people familiar with the plan.

• ‌The cuts, ‌aimed at creating a nimble workforce ⁠and freeing ⁠up cash for investments, could start being announced in a matter of weeks, the report said, without revealing how many jobs ‌were at stake

• Comcast ​did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment outside regular business hours

• The report comes months after Comcast said it will split into two ​publicly traded companies through a ‌spinoff of ‌NBCUniversal ⁠and Sky, under pressure from streaming rivals and industry consolidation

• The company had about 179,000 employees as ‌of December 31, ​2025
