Long-expected layoffs are hitting Pixar Animation Studios on Tuesday.

 

Pixar will lay off about 175 employees, or around 14% of the studio’s workforce, a spokesperson for parent company Walt Disney told CNBC. The cuts come as CEO Bob Iger works toward his overarching mandate to focus on the quality of its content, not the quantity.

 

Layoffs hit other Disney businesses last year, but Pixar’s cuts were delayed because of production schedules. Initially, it was reported that 20% of the animation studio’s employees would be laid off.

They haven't been making the best choices about which stories to tell the last 12yr. I'm sure the people directly responsible for this will be affected. /s

Before 2012, pretty much everything was amazing.  It was hit and miss for the 10s, and has been almost strikeouts this decade.
