Having worked on very high profile projects in my career under an NA, I'll argue that they'll do more than a reprimand.
They won't sue them, but they better brush up their resumes.

Oh man, I am beyond hyped. The monster land was my most anticipated since it was rumored for EU.

Once they remove me from the park, I won't stick around for the reprimand.
That's how you beat the system!!
It would be sad/ironic if EU had the issue that SWL had at DL when it opened, namely, the hype that it would be so mobbed that the mobs stay away.

And while you're right in the short term, getting terminated and no rehire from the 33rd largest company in the Fortune 500 may lead to unexpected consequences later on in life.

IMO its playing a part. It's also a combination of summer now being slow in Orlando and Disney prices what they are. Many won't go to Orlando just for Universal and if they are finding Disney too expensive they just won't go
I mean, it makes sense.
The US economy has not been doing as well as it should, an Orlando vacation is expensive, consumer confidence is down.
While there is some truth to that, the number of people who are going to Orlando - and not going to Disney - has been on an upswing.
There's quite a few doing a long Universal-only weekend, or Universal + something local.

Sure, but attendance is falling at all Orlando parks. Good reason to believe the growth is rooted in Orlando’s further growth + cruises
Yeah this is ultimately what I’m afraid of. If Epic is a disappointment it likely means the suits at Disney know what they’re talking about.

That's the thing, a brand new state of the art theme park is opening in 2 months. Orlando should be packed with people for it but they are staying away.
Quite a few ≠ enough to fill a park.
Take a peek at my other response up above, it touches on some of the economic and societal issues at play.
Packed with people two months out?
Maybe two weeks out when the park will likely be in some soft opening/preview phases.

I'm not saying right now with previews. I'm talking about when it opens in May.
I can buy the non US guest not coming. I can't quite get there with the US visitors. Yes the economy isn't great right now and an Orlando vacation is expensive. Yet when I was planning my summer parks vacations at Dollywood and Cedar Point, their resorts have been the highest rates I've seen since COVID. People don't have an issue paying $400 a night for a 3-4 nights there but won't travel to Orlando for Epic.
Those are literally bullet points from industry meetings that I've sat in as recently as February.
