Disney Manager in Burbank, CA:   (Past Employee - 2007)

Pros

Get the Disney name on your resume.
Get to get into Disneyland or Walt Disney World for free, but note that they have black out days so you cannot always go the day you want. Oh, and if you go too many times (or your family members do) then they will send you a warning that you are going too much.
Your peers will usually be fun to work with.
Most non-Disney employees will be impressed that you are or have been a Disney employee.
It's easy to be motivated to do a good job because you like what Walt stood for.

Cons

They expect you to be available 24/7.
Disney comes first - before family and friends.
If you stay too long then they will you lay you off.
They do not like long term employees because they have to pay too many benefits.

Advice to Senior Management

Nothing. They will not listen anyway.
