Pluspunten
Each property is its own business and is supported by HQ in Las Vegas. Upper management at my property seems to be very open to suggestions for process improvements. Many changes I have suggested since I began in January 2008 have immediately been given the green light and implemented. The company also seems to highly value a commitment to education, intellectual growth, and to genuinely recognize and value someone who is upbeat, positive and innovative. The overall company is dynamic and the business is always evolving. Our property encourages a healthy stream of new ideas and there are always contests and awards going on for employees.
Minpunten
Casino gaming is usually a 24-7 operation. Because of this, you need to be very flexible in your schedule. Almost NO employees at ANY property work 9a-5p Monday through Friday. Chances are, you will be working on almost all weekends and holidays. At the end of February, 2 private equity firms bought our company and took it private. The nature of this transaction has resulted in several mid-level supervisors, managers and assistants being laid off. Currently, this leaves the employees with a dark uncertainty as to what will happen to them and their jobs in the near future, thus many are more stressed out than usual.
