The Role
Was overall a very enjoyable experience, though there were some significant bumps in the road.
There were lots of interns , so didn't necessarily feel special. There was a lot of unhealthy competitiveness between interns too.
Lots of support for those who asked!
Very busy!
Lots and lots of responsibility.
It looks absolutely amazing on my CV.
The Company
Very very fun at Disney. Only on occasion was it stressful.
Extremely organized- definitely felt very thought through.
They made sure that I was making personal development.
National Travel
Company Parties/Events
I feel like I have grown since Disney, but I would love to be offered a job there in the future.
The Culture
An okay social scene! I felt isolated from my colleagues as our morals didn't often align, but for those who make friends it's very social!
I was paying £1100+ a month for rent, travel on the tube, bills and tax. It was unbelievably expensive, so I definitely had to limit my socialising.
Lots of nice pubs
Not sure
