Is pursuing an animation career still worth it?

I’ve been hearing a lot of bad stuff going on in the animation industry regarding the big studios and such (ex: CN, Nickelodeon, Disney, etc). and it’s making me have second thoughts on pursuing my career into animation as I want to make a difference in the industry but with things like this going on, I don’t know at this point. I want to do screenwriting but still wants to be in the animation industry even if I’m not an animator. Is it worth doing another career in the animation industry at this time?
