- 5.0Apr 29, 2023UsherFormer EmployeeOrlando, FL
Pros
They are a very friendly and understanding company who actually cares about their employees
Cons
As a part time worker, they don't schedule you almost ever, so in order to work you need to be on the facebook group asking coworkers for shifts.
- 5.0Sep 9, 2023Custodial WorkerFormer Employee, less than 1 yearOrlando, FL
Pros
The supervisors are professional, but also the kindest people I have ever worked under. I can't say enough good things about them or the people I worked with. Working at Hollywood Studios, Custodial was certainly not glamorous but the environment couldn't be more enjoyable. The buildings, the decor, the streets at night... magnificent. I loved it! Pay is also very good!!
Cons
The heat is the only major con. Coming from the far North, working outside was very difficult. Hard to breath and I ended up getting extremely ill. Hence, the reason I no longer work there. But if you can handle heat - a custodial position is great.
- 5.0Aug 26, 2023Merchandise HostCurrent Employee, more than 5 yearsLake Buena Vista, FL
Pros
My favorite reason for working here are the benefits. I enjoy the vacation pay, health insurance, and retirement options. They just added 401k along with current pension plan. I also had my college expenses paid for and graduated with a Bachelors degree with the intent to also get my MBA. I love that it’s not costing me anything.
Cons
Working in a store is not terrible but can be boring. But any job that is not in my career field would feel boring. My advice is to enjoy the small interaction and soak in all the opportunities. I think it’s a fair trade of benefits for having a boring job.

- 5.0Aug 27, 2023PhotoPass PhotographerFormer Employee, more than 5 yearsOrlando, FL
Pros
This is hands down the best fast paced photography experience you can get! I don't think there is any other photographer job position in the world were you'll take more pictures every single day. You will learn a lot skills that will help you gather experience in different types of photography like family, headshots, couples, product, sports, etc.. You will also gain lots of experience in guest relations, and will have the opportunity to work in different areas around the resort.
Cons
It is physically demanding, and many times it requires working under harsh weather conditions like extreme heat or rain.
