All department and levels within the club will be impacted and the club says it will not include staff at their charitable arm, the Manchester United Foundation.

From Daily Mail article: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-13595659/Man-United-redundant-cost-review-Red-Devils.html

At 1,112 as of June 30 last year, United had by far the biggest staff of any club in the Premier League. That number is considerably higher than all of their Big Six rivals, with Liverpool having around 1,005 employees, Chelsea 788, Tottenham 719, Arsenal 649 and Manchester City 520, according to each club’s latest figures.

It is now almost two months since Manchester United faced an internal revolt after news emerged that the club’s chief executive, Richard Arnold, had communicated to his executive leadership team how the club was planning to bring back Mason Greenwood.

Ultimately, United did not follow through on the plan, instead opting to send Greenwood on loan to Spanish side Getafe following a backlash from politicians, charities and supporters. In September, Arnold organised an all-staff meeting, in which he sought to address the concerns that had spiralled among staff.

During the peak of the Greenwood episode, some staff members felt shamed by their association with the club, while others considered their positions and discussed how to organise a strike in the workplace. Former United captain Gary Neville described the club’s process as “horrible” and said the club lacked “authoritative leadership”.

This is disgusting, @ManUtd I will always stand in solidarity with survivors of domestic violence, so consider me “hostile”.

Really disappointed at how United have handled this. They should be focused on making the correct decision, speaking up in support of victims of domestic abuse & sexual assault, and acting with integrity. The club must realise this isn’t a PR crisis it’s about doing what’s right.

Also Women's aid a charity for helping abuse victims:

"Hostile" is an inappropriate way to describe domestic & sexual abuse charities in stakeholder mapping, but especially in this case.
