$19/hr -> $24/hr… over 3 years…

sigh…

this will still barely match the cost of living for most of these people today, let alone 3 years from now.

They focus on the ‘historic’ raise and don’t mention any other part of the negotiations or contract. They don’t mention that it’s a pittance more than starting wages at McDonald’s. Not that it likely screws over long term employees, once again.

While this is a good start. I think they could have fought for more. There is a lot of old numbers on those contracts that need to be reevaluated like specialty position rates. (25 cents/hr more)

They could have fought for the bullshit attendance policies that were recently enacted and for the eroding cast perks.

Disneyland can afford to start their employees at $25. The happiest place on Earth shouldn’t exploit their employees.
