Days after calling the pay of Disney's top executives 'insane,' the granddaughter of company co-founder Roy Disney is proposing the company put aside half of the bonuses its execs earn and distribute it to the bottom 10% of their 200,000 employees
Just days after calling the pay of Disney's top brass"insane," the granddaughter of company co-founder Roy Disney wrote an opinion piece in the Washington Post, in which she acknowledged she"struck a nerve with a Twitter thread about wage inequality at the Walt Disney Co.""I believe that Disney could well lead the way, if its leaders so chose, to a more decent, humane way of doing business," she wrote in a piece published Tuesday.
25-an-hour federal minimum wage: Workers at its Florida resorts will make $15 per hour by 2021, while employees at Disneyland in California had their pay increased to $15 an hour at the start of this year. But Abigail Disney said that's not enough."This argument fails to acknowledge that the cost of living varies from place to place and few can make do on that, no matter where they live," she wrote.
