Business Outlook
Pros
Mattel has great design teams, great brands, and the teams at Boys and Girls, American Girl and Fisher Price are very driven to succeed. They take a lot of pride in their products.
Cons
Mattel's consensus environment has deteriorated to a point where you have people more worried about what others are doing than what competition is doing. Too many people in the management layers to "stay informed" rather than adding value. Not enough communications from managers to employees.
