Speaking as the mom of a CM, this is ABSOLUTELY on point.....he's upset a lot of people within the company who have left and taken years of experience with them...

Give me your ranked list of Disney CEOs from best to worst.From the three comments here, it appears the only two that didn't have fairly major flaws are Walt and Roy Disney.
So perhaps we give Chapek a shot at this?
“We have things on the cost of goods side,” McCarthy said. “And it's interesting. Just last week … I was talking to our parks senior team about things we could do there. And there are lots of things that are worth talking about. We can adjust suppliers. We can substitute products. We can cut portion size, which is probably good for some people's waistlines.”
“Some people have more money than they have time and others have more time than they have money,” stated McCarthy.
that guy is a pretty smart fellow........
Lots of revenge travel going on now. We'll see how they do when that bubble bursts. And there will always be first timers, though with astronomical price increases there won't be as many of those as before.He didn’t do that though. Parks have had record traffic since Covid.
There's a ton or revenge travel with people that have extra money to burn from the past few years, on top of that, certain age groups just now getting access to vaccines.Lots of revenge travel going on now.

WOW......just......wow.“We have things on the cost of goods side,” McCarthy said. “And it's interesting. Just last week … I was talking to our parks senior team about things we could do there.

I'm sure these are comments that have been said behind closed doors for decades at disney, but are now being said out in the open to the press.
For what disney charges for food, there shouldnt be any cutting on portions, and waistline comments about their customers is down right disgusting.

to be fair, my 11 year old can't eat $70 worth of food at Space 220, or really anywhere. i didnt realize they were barely making it by based on how much they're charging.WOW......just......wow.
I definitely get what you are saying. So, would you not have a problem with WDW cutting your DS's food portions [since he cannot eat $70 worth] but not also lowering the price? [..not trying to start an argument or anything; just curious... I said 'wow' because the statement was callous and superficial]to be fair, my 11 year old can't eat $70 worth of food at Space 220, or really anywhere. So i'm not seeing how cutting portion size is going to help there....
oh they should without a doubt cut the price. i think its insane how much they charge for an "adult" that's 11 years old. They're making bank off of him.I definitely get what you are saying.

....so true.......I find the CFO's comments out of touch and disgusting.
$70 for a meal is probably cheap for her.
No. Some are better than others. I can't rank them. I didn't ask the person I was responding to to rank them either, so we're clear. I just asked for an example of "the magic" that Chapek is lacking.Give me your ranked list of Disney CEOs from best to worst.
How 1about the fact that the parks are open and just about back to normal. I can’t comprehend how some people diminish the role of a CEO of huge corp like its simi to being a manager at the local McDonalds
Is Chapek a good CEO, only time will tell. One of the most important part of being CEO of an entertainment giant as Disney is being the face and spokesman for the company. Let's be honest, regardless of everything else done Chapek has been a PR disaster. Can he rebound, maybe. Right now it does not matter as he has that new 3 year deal, so he is not going anywhere.No. Some are better than others. I can't rank them.

That's exactly my point. You're asking people to be specific and meanwhile you're not willing be specific about where Chapek ranks for you.No. Some are better than others. I can't rank them.

There ain't been that many.Give me your ranked list of Disney CEOs from best to worst.
Not at all my point. THEY mentioned the "magic" other CEOs had brought and I just wanted a couple of examples.That's exactly my point. You're asking people to be specific and meanwhile you're not willing be specific about where Chapek ranks for you.
