Reed Hastings / Greg Peters

Netflix Co-CEOs Ted Sarandos and Greg Peters (who replaced co-founder Reed Hastings in 2023) presided over Netflix's triumphant rebound from its 2022 subscriber loss crisis. By cracking down on password sharing and launching an ad-supported tier that attracted 40 million subscribers in 18 months, Netflix grew to 301 million paying subscribers by end of 2024, generating $10 billion in operating income on $39 billion in revenue.
