So I’ve worked with the Disney tax team a bit. I feel like they actually have a great operation with some fairly sophisticated tools and procedures. That’s a company I’d definitely consider working for if you get an offer.

To repeat some other comments they are very excited about any Disney references but having a young kid I didn’t really think much of it besides them having some corporate pride. Disney owns a lot in the entertainment industry, and you’ll get a wide range of experience with that group.

We’ve worked with them a lot in an advisory capacity. I know they are VERY budget conscious.
