Femme Actuelle

Femme Actuelle is a magazine title belonging to Prisma Media, a leading magazine publisher in France. Prisma Media is currently newsworthy due to a significant restructuring plan involving substantial job cuts. The company announced plans to eliminate 261 positions, representing 40% of its total workforce of 650 employees. This announcement, made to employee representatives, has sparked concern and is described as a "carnage" within the company. Prisma Media, founded by Bertelsmann, was acquired by Vivendi in April 2021, since which it has already reduced its workforce by over a third. The planned layoffs highlight the challenges facing the magazine publishing industry in France and the impact of corporate restructuring on media organizations.
