I'm not saying I know anything about Tom's future, I'm just relaying how it usually works. It's not a big industry. People move around all the time, and Disney (and Universal) uses outside companies on projects all the time, much of the time utilizing relationships from prior employment. No need to be concerned. The wheel always keeps turning. Old staff move out, new moves in, old comes back. And so on.
So, you are reassuring us that there has been no structural change in the process of attraction creation with this current round of terminations?
I think the OP was just noting that this isn't nearly as big of a deal as people are making it out to be, except for, of course, the people immediately involved. The industry historically relies a lot on project hires who are let go as soon as their corresponding project is over. The industry as a whole is also fairly fluid with with who the talent works for, at least as far as I can tell looking at people's LinkedIn profiles.
Not sure what you mean by structural change in the process of attraction creation. The way attractions are planned and built hasn't changed much in a few decades. The way the company works is constantly tweaked, but it's been essentially the same processes for a long time as well. The article says the same thing I did.
Right.
