Scusate, ma da nessuna parte c'e' scritto che il licenziamento dei 1400 e' a causa delle vendite.
Se leggete il comunicato dice chiaramente che negli anni l'azienda ha costruito una realta' molto complessa per sostenere la propria crescita.
Ora questa complessita' sta impedendo di scalare ulteriormente, di conseguenza hanno pigiato il "reset button" per snellire.
"During the past five years, the LEGO Group has built an increasingly complex organisation to support global double-digit growth.
Knudstorp said: “In the process, we have added complexity into the organisation which now in turn makes it harder for us to grow further. As a result, we have now pressed the reset-button for the entire Group. This means we will build a smaller and less complex organisation than we have today, which will simplify our business model in order to reach more children. It will also impact our costs. Finally, in some markets the reset entails addressing a clean-up of inventories across the entire value chain. The work is well under way.”
The new organisation will increase the LEGO Group’s focus on its markets and customers across the world.
As a consequence of the plans, the LEGO Group believes it would need to reduce its total global workforce by around eight per cent."
