Walt Disney Company reviews

I've been part of 4 reorgs in 6 years. Between that and the various lay-offs, leadership at the top seems to do everything they can to keep things stressful. The recent back-to-office mandates are silly. Of the people I work with, everyone who goes into the office is just on Zoom all day, but in a noisier, more uncomfortable environment. Total nonsense. Tightening in budgets basically forces everyone to work more because we don't have the headcount we need. Everyone still needs to get the same amount of work done as we did with more teammates. Definitely worried people are going to burn out. Moving up the ladder is slooooooow. I've been assured of promotions so many times that either took years or haven't yet come. Increased workload certainly comes way before the title and salary changes catch up.

Culture is very conservative, stuck in the 1950’s mind set, culture is not adaptable and too many gate keepers at the middle management /Director level who are resistant to change. - No succession career planning - no opportunity for growth in corporate technology
