My guess is that budgets have been cut to such a degree by execs and managers so that they can achieve budget goals and earn their bonuses.

I don't know why Disney would be cutting budgets. The theme parks are supposedly doing very well.

See this article.

In particular this:

Operating income at Disney's parks and resorts rose 20 percent to $805 million in the company's fiscal first quarter, ended Dec. 27 [2014], when more people visited its parks in the United States. They also spent more on tickets, merchandise, food and drinks.

Income rose TWENTY percent. That is huge.
