Here is what we currently know about the company that made 'cord-cutting' and 'binge watching' commonplace digital industry terms. I hope you find this data helpful. Netflix Headquarters: Los Gatos, Ca; Netflix Founders: Reed Hastings and Marc Randolph; Netflix CEO: Reed Hastings; Number of Netflix Employees: 3,500 employees. Unfortunately for all you binge-watching job seekers, all the Editorial Analyst positions are now gone in the meantime but more might open up soon. Keep checking the official Netflix Jobs website. There's a reason why that Portlandia sketch about the couple binge-watching Battlestar Galactica hit home — we may not have lost our jobs and our minds to an overly addictive TV show, but many. Netflix is on the hunt for a UK/Ireland “tagger” looking to turn pjs into the new office chic. According to the job listing, successful applicants will watch and “deconstruct” TV shows and movies.

They say you do your best work when you actually like what you're doing. So if you're one of the millions of people who enjoy streaming movies and television shows, boy does Netflix have a paycheck for you. The streaming giant is looking to hire someone to watch, rate, annotate, tag, and more of its near-700 pieces of original content it's churning out this year.
Working out of Netflix's Los Angeles' offices, the 'entertainment-savvy' editorial analyst will be responsible for helping 'categorize television series, specials, and movies for our 100+ million users.' Basically, this individual will be a professional binge-watcher, specifically of Netflix's original programming. The main requirements are a fluency in Japanese (presumably because Netflix Japan boasts the biggest library of original content) and five-plus years of experience in the film/television industry. A passion for entertainment is obviously a must.
C'mon Andy Sachs of binge-watching! This is the job a million Netlixers would kill for. Apply here.
You can now turn binge watching all seven seasons of The West Wing — and by that we really mean all seven seasons of Toddlers & Tiaras — from your bed into a real, paying job.
Netflix is on the hunt for a UK/Ireland “tagger” looking to turn pjs into the new office chic. According to the job listing, successful applicants will watch and “deconstruct” TV shows and movies, objectively giving them the proper tags. Like “Coming-of-age Animal Tales” and “Gritty British Prison Movies.”
Even without salary specifications, this may or may not be better than the panda nanny dream job.
