Moving back from Florida to California.🏄‍♂️ Hope to see my fellow cast members back soon. This is the WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Headlines should read "irreplaceable talent laid off for no reason." So much company loyalty tarnished from people like myself who moved for no reason. Others declined the move and were laid off. Some VERY talented and marquee-caliber artists. Disney... — read more 

There are no posts or articles about the layoffs in the last two weeks, but it's obviously not over yet. I don't hear rumors either. 2 calendar weeks left from May, so something should happen soon.

May will most likely be the teams they needed for the first two rounds of layoffs.. GHRO, HR, Compensation, Benefits ect. (Purely speculation)

Any chance somebody knows what's left regarding layoffs? Is it just people who the management was not able to notify because they were on sick leave or vacation or will there be more groups targeted? Our group has been spared so far, and instead of... — read more

I am still safe but the anxiety is huge. It's terrible what good people are going through because of bad leadership moves. Did these layoffs really have to happen?

Do we have any idea how many have been notified so far and which departments were hit? I hate having little to no information on something this important. If the leadership cared about us at all or respected us they would keep us informed, whether... — read more 

Perhaps I'm wrong, but for now it seems to me that a lot of hard working and dedicated people are being laid off, instead of the company getting rid of pretenders who do nothing all day long.

May the odds be ever in your favor this week….it’s gonna be a rough one 😞
