Pros

Free park entrance and good health benefits.

Cons

Anti-family with scheduling and time off. Not much in the way of promotions since there are so many employees and not enough positions up top.

Pros

Disney invests heavily in developing their Cast Member's skills and abilities. There is ample opportunity to work outside of your comfort zone and learn new areas of business. The company in general has a great culture of collaboration. If you are in a salaried position, you will be given the opportunity to work with other people in a team setting to further company goals.

Cons

It is a big corporation, a lot of bureaucracy. Important projects can take months, even years, to get programmed while you wait for management approval and budgeting etc. Then, once it is approved and in the system, you will have to go through the whole process again with a group that should really just be implementing solutions.

Pros

Well know brand. Good benefits. My peers are nice and helpful. The brand is great! The benefits are good if you are a salaried employee. I love going to the parks for free!

Cons

Management not good at leading. Very negative. Expectations are not expressed clearly and they change without notice. A lot of micro managers work here! Too many company regulations that stifle creativity. Don't hear a lot of postive things. Everything is always what you are doing wrong. Little recognition for what you do right. Not much support to help you succeed unless you are already a success. Then, you can do whatever you want.
