Tagging these users because they said that the strike threat would fail and Disney would just fire all the workers.
We love a messy bitch
Disney makes like a third of their revenue from their parks and it's like the only thing they've got that's still going strong with both their streaming service and their films being pretty big flops. Having to rehire and retrain 14k workers would have been so time intensive it would have been incredibly time intensive and would have probably forced them to close down the park for a really long time, not to mention losing thousands upon thousands in reservations, etc. Firing them was rally never an option at all.
100%. One, Disney takes longer to train staff than most places do in the first place, and that’s just for the generic CSR type jobs. Disneyland makes 10s of millions of dollars per day. A strike of even a few days would be devastating, and firing everyone would likely mean weeks to retrain.
You were really waiting on this one huh? 
Hello its me, I was publicly wrong on the internet!
Thanks for sharing the good news. Also you are an incredibly smug asshole and I'll be blocking you, thanks.
Lol
Re-engage.
Lmao
lmao
I mean, not to be doomer but they could just be doing this for good PR and then just lay everyone off 3-6th months from now.
I mean regardless they have a contract now right? Even new workers will get these raises
Read other replies to learn why firing thousands of workers off rip isn’t a viable strategy for Disney
Not that anyone here needs the reminder, but
Every pay bump is an admission of guilt
The answer, of course, is that the money was already there. Your boss was just taking it instead of giving it to you. This is the simple but critical point that we all should chew on. Because when you chew on it, the flavor of revolution leaks out into your gums, real sweet. Every celebration of a union’s hard-fought gains in a strike or in bitter contract negotiations should be accompanied by an equal and opposite condemnation of the company itself for making its own valued “team members” go through such a struggle just to get what was clearly there all along.
We love to see it 
also all of these signs rule, "Bippity Boppity Boost our pay" especially lmao
I can't imagine working in the sun all day, in heavy costumes, staying in character at all times. The work must be really hard and they deserve this.
And it's not just the character actors that are in character, it's every worker that is public facing.
Every customer interaction is to engage in an act. At least the polite ones make it easier, but pretending to be happy to help some dumbass who couldnt find something marked by a sign always grates.
Oh fuck yeah this is great
Ha ha ha I gotta congratulate some comrades now for their huge work helping to make this happen
Eat shit, megacorporations.
just goes to show how much surplus profit they're really making off them
