Discovery.While Paramount already had data and analytics teams across the company, it now has a new point person to oversee those efforts."I would hope and expect that, little by little, we're going to bring those silos down," DiMeglio said. He added it's "not easy work."Dane Glasgow, Paramount's chief product officer, said in an email to employees that "these updates are part of a broader effort to focus our investments, reduce fragmentation, and move faster as one team."Paramount's streaming team has become familiar with change. Last week, Paramount's streaming product and tech chief, Vibol Hou, told colleagues he was leaving at the end of January, Business Insider reported."You could probably sense that there's been some musical chairs stuff going on within the organization at large," Kim said. "And that's not unique. That's sort of true of any company that's undergoing a large-scale organizational transformation, like the one that we're in the midst of now."Continuing the musical chairs analogy, Kim said that this change signals that "this is our chair — we're here to stay."Although Paramount laid off about 1,000 employees in October, a few months after its Skydance merger closed, Kim downplayed the idea that this data and insights shake-up signals that more cuts are ahead."I don't think our scope is going to get smaller here. It is only going to get larger," Kim said. "And I think those are all exciting tailwinds for us as a team."Kim added that "there might be more consolidation in the future, but that's going to be into our team."Two Paramount employees in the meeting told Business Insider they were happy to hear about the change."It is exciting, given that we will have a lot more visibility than we used to," one employee on this team said.Another staffer said this change indicates that Paramount is "somewhat serious about the 'tech'-ification of the company."Read the original article on Business Insider
