Netflix tells employees to spend company money 'wisely' after major subscriber loss - Fox Business

Streaming giant Netflix is advising its employees to be more careful with how they are spending company money, according to a new memo posted to the company's website.

The directive is found in a memo, first reported by Variety, titled "Netflix Culture – Seeking Excellence." Under the "Judgment" section, it encourages employees to "spend our members' money wisely."

The memo goes on to detail other company best practices like selflessness, courage, communication, inclusion and more.

The memo comes after Netflix suffered its first subscriber loss in more than a decade. The company's customer base fell by 200,000 subscribers during the January-March period, according to its quarterly earnings report.

The company blamed password sharing among its members and increasing competition in the streaming space for creating what it called "revenue growth headwinds." Netflix estimated that besides its almost 222 million paying households, the service is being shared with an additional 100 million homes, including 30 million in the U.S. and Canada.

Netflix has announced plans to crack down on password sharing and introduce a cheaper, ad-supported subscription tier. In addition, the company has reportedly canceled several animated projects and let go of some of the department's staff in an effort to cut costs.
