Disneyland has laid off 100 salaried employees as Orange County’s largest employer recalibrates its business ahead of the busy Christmas holiday season set to kick off at the Anaheim theme park in the next few weeks.
“With our business in a period of steady, sustained operation, we are recalibrating our organization to ensure we continue to deliver exceptional experiences for our guests, while positioning Disneyland Resort for the future,” according to a statement from a Disneyland spokesperson. “As part of this, we’ve made the difficult decision to eliminate a limited number of salaried positions.”

Approximately 100 Disneyland employees from a range of departments were laid off. The Disneyland resort is Orange County’s largest employer with 36,000 workers.
“We are deeply grateful for the contributions of these cast members and are committed to supporting them with care, respect and resources during this transition,” according to a statement from a Disneyland spokesperson.
The Disneyland layoffs come as business has begun to normalize following staffing increases when the parks returned from the COVID-19 closures.
Amazon, Paramount, Target and General Motors have announced layoffs ranging from the hundreds to the thousands in recent days.
