Netflix has agreed to negotiate a first companywide contract with IATSE, the union representing the industry’s below-the-line workers.
Two unions, Writers Guild of America, East (WGAE) and the Motion Picture Editors Guild/IATSE Local 700 (MPEG) have announced that approximately 430 VICE Media employees have chosen to go union.
