What are your thoughts of working for Disney as a senior product manager but it is contract to hire? Is it worth it if the contract is 18 months with guarantee hire according to the staffing company? Is there any benefit of getting the job through the staffing company as opposed to direct application? @Disney

I’m a contracted PA at Disney and the pay is muchhh better as a contractor. My contract is 12 months and I anticipate an extension. The staffing company offers basic benefits and I’m completely content. If you want to work for the company, I would recommend this route to everyone! When you get hired on, your salary will likely be higher than if you had just gone through the company to start, even though you might get a bit of a pay cut. Good luck! 😊

I am looking to make a career change to HR. I currently make 75K as a sales and development coach. I had a recent offer for a state government position in a talent acquisition role but I’d be taking a $25K pay cut. I am extremely over qualified for the position but it could possibly be a stepping stone and gives me the time to acquire SHRM certifications and possibly start taking classes to get my MBA. My question is those currently in an HR role, would this move make sense to you?

I am Product Owner, and have an opportunity to change my Title to "Product Manager".
