They do however treat their creative department very well. Disney is just as IP focused as any tech company. Software has simply never been as important as the story, characters, etc. And honestly they’re doing really well so it’s hard to argue their priorities are wrong.

PS: I have always disliked how they operate, but my sister’s working there making movies. So, I try to keep an open mind.

Disney is no different than any other company as far as how they treat their front line people. They treat their creative people well but they outsource the special effects and much of the non computer animation out to the lowest bidder.

All of the big tech companies with hardware sales and grunt work do the same.
