"I have worked for Disney since 2006. I have enjoyed my time with the company but there has been a lot of transition within the Director and CIO positions which has resulted in a lot of changes including restructuring of the IT multiple times. This means a lot of uncertainty. Often a new Director or CIO comes in and outsources a lot of the jobs. After almost 9 years it can be quite frustrating and the latest round of outsourcing and layoffs has left me without a job."

"I have worked at Walt World for about a year. The company culture can take a bit of getting used to, but Disney prides itself on maximum guest experience. Overall I have enjoyed it, but location on property makes a huge difference. Caribbean Beach was my first location and nearly my favorite job I have ever had. Great management and coworkers."

"Very little room for advancement. You are better off leaving and returning. Many people hired in with less experience. Org management needs serious help. I report to people who have no technical understanding of what I do. No resources or training. You must be a Disney fan, that is the only motivation I have."
