MyPillow lays off 140 workers because of slower sales

A delay in new commercials and slower sales have led to an inventory glut for MyPillow, and the Chaska company has laid off 140 of its 1,600 employees, CEO Mike Lindell said.

“I was so devastated by having to do it, but we don’t have room to make any more pillows,” Lindell said. “When we get our advertising done we are going to be hiring back.”
