Major layoffs at Hasbro. Considering that Mattel stock also fell this week, I would be surprised if we're not next on the list for layoffs.

We made it to the end of the year. Happy holidays, good luck next year
Ynot should be first
The Barbie movie was a Warner Bros. product. WB will receive the direct profits. Yes Mattel will receive royalties, but was that value ever been disclosed to shareholders? Someone in ES signed a contract in past years confirming royalties and or up front money. Feels like business dealings surrounding the movie production are cloaked out of view of shareholders and definitely employees.
Probably. Definitely.
They said no layoffs this year because the Barbie movie was such a smash hit.
