Disney

Interesting tech, lots of projects you could hear about and potentially even apply for. Great to have the inside scoop on Disney services and projects. Plus, a park pass is pretty awesome.

With such a massive company, you'll be a tiny cog. You can't use any old code library you want, as there is a list of approved libraries. So, sometimes, that functionality you take for granted just won't be available to you, and you might have to roll your own.

Executives are happy with buzzwords in tech and may not keep legacy systems around (that make $ and work), so you may be working on a project just to "modernize" an existing system.

It seems Disney is happy to scoop up studios one decade for in-house development and then outsource everything another decade. But it appears to go in cycles.

So, it can be tough hearing about layoffs in other divisions, knowing that you could be next.

Trust the subject matter experts on their domains.

Trust the teams to deliver.
