Disney should let the 2,000 employees who are being relocated from California to the East Coast work remotely rather than requiring them to live in the Sunshine State.
Thousands of companies across the country are discovering how hard it can be to order employees back to the office. Now imagine trying to order employees back to the office in a community across the country that is openly hostile to you, your family or your colleagues.
Disney for many years has provided a home for LGBTQ+ talent and their allies. That’s long created tension between those who work in Florida’s tourism economy, led by Disney, and more conservative forces in the state. So long as Florida could maintain a façade of welcoming and hospitality, that tension merely simmered rather than boiling over. But that façade is gone now, leaving Disney management to twist in the middle of a battle between a Florida administration that is paying the company a reported half a billion dollars to bring those jobs to Florida and Disney cast members and customers who want to see Disney management speak out against and cut off all contributions to those state leaders.
It also has left Disney Parks leaders trying to recruit creative leaders to live and work in a state that many creative leaders now would rather avoid.
