Okay company to work for if you’re high enough on the career ladder and okay with your position. Perks are good if you can take advantage by traveling or being close to the parks.
Toxic culture. Promo process is not fair, favoritism trumps merit. Too many politics. Leadership is nonexistent or a failure in some aspects.
Hi all! How do internal transfers work at Disney? Do you need to do the whole interview loop? Can you apply for more senior roles (if you feel you're qualified)? How does changing affect your TC? I assume if you do a horizontal move it wouldn't change, but what if you go up in seniority? And what...Read more

I was watching the hot Korean series Moving on Disney Plus in Asia (or Disney Plus with Hulu in the US). In Episode 5, there was a bunch of girls bullying another girl in school (grade 12), and all other students just pretend they didn't see or hear anything. That's because those girls are like ga...Read more
I recently got promoted to senior dev after having been with Disney for ~1.5years. I graduated right before I started here so I have no prior experience other than my own projects and internships. People will argue this but: in my opinion, and the opinions of my team members, this promotion isn’t un...Read more

This is wage theft....Read more
I’ve been a recruiter (both tech and non-tech) for the last 5 years - wow! Time flies! I graduated with a degree in business admin with an emphasis in HR in 2017. I didn’t like the drama of the HR world so I decided to focus my career in recruiting. For the last two years, since Covid, I’ve been pic...Read more
I had many onesites scheduled 2 months ago. I did 5 and got rejected in all of them. Then several other companies that I passed the phone screen ghosted me and never did onsite.
