Politics aside: how much operational and technical risk is staff walkout for companies like Netflix? Ie if 2% of their DevOps engineers leave immediately, would it create any noticeable operational/technical effect for Netflix?

in the short term, unlikely. If they can't manage to keep their systems running for a few hours during off peak hours, then they have bigger problems.

Long term, if 3% of their SRE/SWE leave Netflix tomorrow, would it make any noticeable operational/technical difference?
