Pros

Disney+ is large consumed product and that can be significant in your resume. Maybe you get the experience of working with some folks that are really smart

Cons

Leadership and their product have a very vague roadmap and almost no idea what they are doing. Zero clarity, ambiguous future. Felt like people were just working on mostly maintenance of their app rather than challenging features. Lots of good people were let go, questionable leaders. Their tech is definitely not at the level of Netflix, Netflix is probably 20 years ahead and no matter how much money Mickey puts later... it will take a lot, also because there's really old people there that aren't moving or letting newer engineers innovate or make an impact.

Pros

Free passes to the parks and discount in the stores.

Cons

Management is disorganized, and the workplace culture is consistently challenging. Frequent organizational changes are introduced with little communication or clarity about the path forward, creating uncertainty and frustration. While some teams provide a better experience than others, a toxic environment is prevalent across much of the organization. Rather than investing in employee growth, development, and internal advancement, the culture often feels focused on limiting employees' potential instead of empowering them to succeed.
