Great branding, cool perks (park admission), but little loyalty to the workforce

Pros

One of the most trusted brands, free park admission, and a commitment to excellence in creative and business areas. A tradition of providing a total experience in family entertainment.

Cons

Mediocre pay, diminishing benefits, expectation of long hours, eroding loyalty to short-term or long-term workers (layoffs handled cavalierly and capriciously).

Advice to Management

Think of the long-term harm of shedding institutional knowledge as opposed to the short-term gain from outsourcing jobs and infrastructure. Take note of the adage: "It is more important to be good than to look good."
