Josh D’Amaro visits Disney World amidst Cast Member Layoffs

Josh D’Amaro, Chairman of Disney Parks Experiences and Products, was spotted at Walt Disney World recently, consoling cast members following last week’s layoff announcement. Multiple guests and cast members shared pictures of D’Amaro in the parks.

Melissa Mangini ran into D’Amaro at Magic Kingdom. Melissa shared, “Josh D’Amaro is such an amazing person, so sweet and came back over just to hear me thank him profusely and take a picture with him. Literally sobbing. I am so grateful and hope I can see him again, only this time with my name tag on again. Thank you for wishing me luck, and thank you for how you treat the cast members.”

Over in Disney’s Hollywood Studios Josh D’Amaro talks with a Cast Member.
