If only the instruction sheets you wrote in the past were so well thought out. Stop trying to stir up Sh*t.

Hey! ease up with the anger. The rumor is that the folks being kept until December are going to be the ones that are kept in the new smaller NYC office that will deal with online content and local licensing relations. They will be told and offered permanent positions towards the end of the year but it's being kept on the down low for now because folks are being pushed out in pre-determined waves and some are in those positions but have been deemed "undesirable."

Who the ef is seeing job postings for FP NYC? Are you talking about the jobs at the AMERICAN GIRL STORE IN NYC? Did you even read the postings?

Isn't that always the case? HR in mattel has always been lackluster. More so now that the old bat SC from EA was finally pushed out the door. BTW, that should have been recorded and put online for posterity considering all the people that old goat made miserable during theirtenure at EA.

Relax everyone / this is just the result of a dysfunctional and woefully inept HR group. This the same group that posts incessant pictures of smiling little millennial interns frolicking all over the globe, while the stock is tanking and Barbie s---s the funding out of all other brands. Incompetency on display, is all it’s about.

I’m curious why someone would chastise “millennials”, think they’re the problem, on this anonymous website. Did they say stuff like “Dab on em” or “Mattel is lit AF!”

Seriously? You millennials are that lazy and stupid that you didn't see the postings? I just checked and found them in a heartbeat. Do your own legwork dummy. There's a reason they're pushing your entitled backside out the door. Thanks OP. Nice to know the company we work for is so "on the level."

Can you post the link. I looked on both sites and only see AG listings.
