Pros

There are hard-working people who put their best in every day. Great IP and an excellent campus.

Cons

Leadership cares about themselves only. Saving money means cutting some good people so executive leaders can have extravagant trips or travels. Creativity is dead in DI; no one makes good use of the extraordinary IP that Disney-LA-Marvel has. Politics is the key to survival, and learning the system to be there for 5+ years is what's important to most employees who have been around too long and can't stand to change the technology they are using or the processes being used. Change isn't a good thing; don't try it if you are a newcomer, or you will be part of the mid-year layoff.

Advice to Management

Fix the problem by implementing the change that adopts the new technology.

The longevity of the employees is important, but not the lazy ones who know how to play the system and get a paycheck for nothing.
