The Walt Disney Company salaries

Good pay, nice bonus structure, lots of interesting stuff to work on

Health insurance benefits are not good, the company is bloated, inept engineering leadership

Free park admission and resort discounts

Better than most, but not quite on par with FAANG. If you earn your bonuses and promotions you can do very well.

Building streaming apps used by millions of users around the world. Solving challenging problems.

You get to learn lots of stuff in a short period of time, with the best.

Work environment can be challenging at times, due to co workers, rude guests and ungrateful leaders (bosses) and coordinators (supervisors).

Free park entry, discounts on merchandise, and the ability to shop at an exclusive employee store (Cast Connections).

The amount of opportunities the company offers.

Hiring employees who are efficient but kind.

I talked about my previous job experiences and skills.

It's not the best, but it's better than most full time/ part time jobs related to retail.

The representation is diverse, you get to see a ton of cultures, people, and languages.

Making magic for guests.

Comp tickets.

For me, the cut-throat environment & every man for himself mentality was difficult to navigate. For women, harrasment is commonplace. Every woman i know from work has a story to tell along those lines. In my dept. the managers sit in their air conditioned offices unbothered by us on the front lines in 100 ° heat, when we are short or getting slammed by crowds. They don't lift a finger to help. Ever. They don't even speak to us in passing. If you love this company & grew up w/the parks & movies & want to maintain that, do not work here!

Comp tickets/main gate.

There isn't much to like about corporate within the company. They're over paid & out of touch with us as employees (CM) and the guests.

Remove the CEO. Remove D'Amaro and rebuild from the ground up.

As a Disney fan from childhood, i spent my whole life waiting for that moment! I'd been preparing since I was 5!

Making a guest's day. Seeing a happy family enjoying their vacation. Doing my job well and with a smile despite crowds, heat and physical strain.

This company and it's inclusion.....the thing is, it's a great thing to make sure everyone belongs. The problem with this place is it's all spin!!! Women get no respect in lower roles a d frequently deal with harassment. *That's not inclusive *.

We are vastly underpaid by national standards. By Florida standards, TWDC pays above minimum wage.

You are exposed to Network if you know how, when and where. Anniversary celebrations are fun. Perks and discounts at the Parks, Merchandise and Events. Legacy award takes you places.

Expect to work long hours so you don't really have the time to enjoy the perks for fun, management biases, inclusion is still a working progress and there is a lot of room for improvement. Lots of work expectations for the low pay rate.

Great 401k plan, and insurance. Free and unlimited park admission for self, and some other park admission opportunities for the family (limited). 10 Years or More anniversary party is amazing!

Lately CEO is all about money and the leadership teams are doing the best they can with what they have.

They have recently added Inclusion to their Keys, but they are far from delivering it. Inclusion is not just for demographics, they need to expand their knowledge in ADA including the non-visual disabilities such as Neurodivergence.

Be authentic and positive during your interview aside from getting to know the department you will be working with ahead of time and at least the basic knowledge of the company.

There is room for improvement with the compensation. I am a true believer the Disney company rules wages in Central Florida. If they bring their compensations up, the rest of the companies will follow. (at least within the Travel & Leisure companies).

The representation of diverse demographics is improving but it still a working progress.

The Walt Disney World company is a fast-paced company to be working with. You only get joy when you can enjoy the perks.

Park admission; local discounts; prestige

Expected to work many extra hrs w/out pay

Admission

Accept cast input more readily like Co one did. Money machine rules now

Researching co

Disney is lower. Hospitality Co forgets BTS workers match real world jobs and should be compensated equally. Discounts do not pay the rent.

Good

Every cast member I worked with wanted to be the worlds best and that reflected in the awesome team I worked with. Half of the management team were engaging and cared about making it low stress with enough cast member to execute a massive job completed excellently

Some uniforms were not comfy and it was hot and humid something better could be made for those outside in the heat working hard. The pay and the benifits. To low the hourly pay and it’s a union controlling your pay. Not every cast member or leader works the same and some do deserve so much more than others. The union helps the company not the employees, some benifits were nice but not when I worked there. No overtime was allowed to much

We did get passes to share and the back room to buy food and Disney merchandise and auctions on Disney bigger items was a giant plus on working with Disney. You could take your family to the grocery part and part of the discounted store when I worked there in 2013. I would hope to go back one day to work my senior years part time.

You get to see a lot of people, ok benefit. You get a discount to get in. If you are full-time, you can get in free.

They don’t pay enough money, hard to get an advancement. Hard to find a place to park.

You get to go in free most of the time.

Great culture

Lots of work and demanding hours

disneyland access, 401k, co-workers and technologies

Competitive salary

Working 13 hours a day, work load not organized , no life balance for the crew

Free tickets to Disneyland

They offer great benefits and the cast there are really nice and welcoming.

There's no opportunity for raises at least in my line of work.

Healthcare as well as Theme park admission

I loved the people

I felt like I was always working

The vacation discounts are top notch

Flexibility and ability to grow within the company quickly.

Cliques in workplace

Park entrance

I like the fun environment that encourages you to be creative and free.

It can be stressful at times but that comes with any job/career.

Getting to put joy on a Child and family's faces.

Diversity

Favoritism/ who you know not how hard you work.

Getting into the park for free, good health care, dental and vision

Great co-workers and projects.

Nothing

Free admission to parks for my entire family.

Good benefits

Poor culture. Very little opportunity for growth.

Free Disneyland park passes

What I liked about working at the Walt Disney Company is that I got to perform for the guests and create magic with them

What I did not like about working at the Walt Disney Company is the pay rate and hours

My favorite perk / benefit from the Walt Disney Company would have to be the free entry whenever I choose

Learning something new everyday

People without professionalism

I like the benefits they offer

It’s fun and always positive energy

N/A

Health care, pinching, vacation, OT, PTO, and you get go the all the parks plus discounts 40% and up!

perks were terrific !!

entire company mentality -- very 24/7 "What did you do for me today ? " attitude .

Silver pass to the parks

Knowing that you're creating a magical experience for guests to enjoy.

You had limited control of your schedule and it didn't allow for much of a work/life balance. Depending on your venue/area they tended to treat you like children.

The employee discounts were nice but the health insurance benefits were good.

Pay/friendly environment

nothing, I love my job

Health insurance/theme park access

The experience of making magic

long hours

getting into the parks for free and merchandise discount

Professional work environment, where teamwork and development are a pillar of success. There are many highly talented individuals that I have had the privilege of working with.

The type of work that I currently do is incredibly demanding. It is one of my personal pursuit to balance work and life. The company culture is not conducive to my long term goals.

Park tickets are great, and the benefits are outstanding.

Transfer opportunities, workload, social networking

Lack of upward mobility

Free park admission

the pay and the people

nothing but one time I had to work later but it was fine

food and money and love honesty

Family feel. They take care of their employees

The work-life balance was exceptional!

The salary was poor

Great benefits including HSA contributions and retirement benefits.

opportunity, benefits, values

complexities to get decisions forward

brand experiences and products

The benefits and allotment of job opportunities is endless.

The transition is hard from entry level positions to supervisory roles or management.

Favorite perk is visiting the theme parks for free saving $100's to $1000's. The amount of discounts that Disney gets through many companies they do business with is limitless. Great benefits!

The fantasy and creativity that comes along with keeping the "show" running

Park life requires a physical fitness minimum. Lack of flexibility.

Ability to visit the Disney Parks all year round. Discounts.

I really enjoy the people who work at this company.

I don't like the disney look book guidelines.

I love that I get free admission to the parks.

creating amazing guest experiences

executive leadership needs work

park/hotel discounts

The people I work with are very nice.

I like everything

Getting into the parks for free is a great benefit.

Working with great people, and the attention to detail.

Work life balance.

Cast discounts.

Great Company to work for, they really put time into training their employees.

Crazy Scheduling, it's very inconsistent when you are lower level. Leaders can be rude and in for themselves, one even told me I had a reprimand (which was incorrect) while I was on stage speaking with a guest. A terrible way to "lead" someone

Free Passes, I was not high enough to get benefits, but I know they do offer great employment benefits.

I was working in my favorite park (Animal Kingdom) every day and helping guests with their questions

I want to move up and be able to use my degree and HAACP certification for a better job and future career but there is a lot of favoritism and two sided sort of management

Being able to explore the parks at any time and just relax in the most magical place on earth

Meeting new people everyday around the world.

Unorganized

Learning new skills in new situations

People and variety

Dismal pay; cut hours;retail

Employee discounts and some health car

There are so many resources this company offers that are self help and get you to progress professionally.

The high school environment, favoritism and misscommunication.

Health and Wellness services, free and discounted tickets, employee only events

Work, Infrastructure, Perks

Slow progression and growth

Free Disneyland tickets

The Perks, and being able to job shadow.

The pay

Free entry to all the parks, employee discounts, the rewards for my hard work.
