Walt Disney Company reviews

disney management in its information technology areas are reluctant to promote non-white individuals. when asked for coaching on how to improve or gain promotion into upper management positions, promotion based on merit and skills takes a back-door to traditional good-ol-boy networks. what are characterized as "fair and impartial" employment selection processes are in fact orchestrated to promote those who have gained favor with existing management. management often is not willing to consider other candidates within the company who have equal pedigrees. when faced with seemingly two qualified candidates, one white and one minority, inevitably the minority is not chosen. sad.

Hardly any room for promotion or advancements. It is pretty common for people to leave the company and return a year or two later to a much higher position. Leadership can be passive-aggressive. It is pretty common for no one to be in charge of something or have the ability to make decisions. Things tend to be decided by consensus and inertia too much.
