One ex-Disneyland worker claimed that they had to turn to sex work because the pay at the park wasn’t high enough. These confessions came via Reddit in a thread. Reddit user/NeoKingSerenity said he worked in Disneyland in 2006 and was not paid enough money. He used to earn $800 a month. This Reddit user also said he knew coworkers who slept in their cars to save gas on the drive home.

According to media reports and various sources, Disneyland employees currently earn around $14 per hour depending on their work. According to Inside the Magic, Disneyland has raised ticket prices in recent years to combat inflation, but they haven’t increased the pay and salary of workers.
