Over the years that I have been snooping through here, I've heard some wacky and amazing ideas. But most importantly I've seen that countless people ask questions of what working at Disney is like and how to make it here. I work at the corporate level of the Walt Disney Company in Burbank, California. the WDC is not the same as DLC or WDW. It's the Corporate world but it remains just as harsh to get promoted or find a job. I got lucky my father knew people and that's how I got hired here. I've seen people fight to get to the top but it's a hard and difficult situation as in most companies. But to the dreamers out there, don't think the negative reviews about working at Disney Corporate is harsh. It offers great benefits and reasonable pay. Although it's really hard to kiss your bosses bottom to get a promotion. It is worth it to the person who is a Disney freak. But as in most corporate offices, the honeymoon eventually sways and layoffs do scare you especially around say Thanksgiving and Christmas time. Job security is semi-safe but it is a key factor to look in when applying at the Walt Disney Company. But over all there are countless divisions here at the Walt Disney Company and if you are up to the challenge and love this place, never give up hope. Read more books and keep on believing.
