Experience at a world-class marketing company, learning to work with whiny 'creative' types, exposure to some of the best (and worst) executives – a fantastic resume builder.
Highest average deviation of competence I've ever seen. From top to bottom, Disney employs some of the most talented people I've ever met, and some of the least qualified as well.
Strike a better balance between 'creative' and 'practical' cultures. I found the constant pandering to the creative staff just inflated their egos. The really talented were very professional, and the rest just complained. Time spent managing the personality clashes and bad business decisions made to appease the whiners cost my division millions in operating income.
There are two rounds: one with HR and one with managers. The manager interview is the one that matters. It's not as technical as you might think; soft skills are very important. Overall, it's not as difficult as you'd think, but definitely be prep
They did a great job with the remote interviews. It was very well organized. The interviews are only 30 minutes each, which is nice. There were a lot of interviews, but that is to be expected for a position at this level.
This interview had 3 rounds: * A behavioral round with the manager. * A behavioral round with 2 engineers. * A technical round with 2 engineers, featuring LeetCode-style questions and a simple hypothetical design question.
