It seemed like every issue, big or small, that arose around this time was chalked up to the merger: You said things wouldn’t change! You’re breaking your word! We don’t want to lose the old Pixar! I should say that this outcry came despite the fact that the measures we had put in place to protect Pixar’s culture were working—and, in my view, were a model for how to maintain cultural integrity after a merger.
