Pros

Good benefits, ok pay, some room for advancement, wonderful people to work with in the trenches.

Cons

The company has turned into huge corporate abyss. You are just a number to the company. A cog in the wheel. The heart and soul of the company is gone, anyone who was worth anything has moved on. They do not value experience, knowledge and talent.

Pros

Energetic work environment Free tickets for friends and family Free employee previews to new restaurants and attractions

Cons

Working in HR at the Hollywood theme park has been frustrating compared to HR roles at other divisions. Instead of managing employees, you are babysitting juveniles on behaving with common sense. There are too many strict, totalitarian policies like point deductions for minor infractions prevents employees from doing their jobs effectively. There is a lack of engagement from senior management who shuns progressive HR ideas in favor of out-dated bureaucratic processes. I don't just speak for myself when almost the entire HR staff has turned over in the past 2 years for those same reasons and will continue to do so until management improves the culture.
