Run away
Field Installation Technician (Current Employee), Egg Harbor Township, NJ – April 25, 2013
Beware......they want your soul for little in return. Salary compensation for what should be hourly compensation. Mandatory weekend travel to job sites. Between 60 to 80 hour work weeks with no incentives.

Worst Company I have ever worked with !! Forcing Employees to work at Late Nights
Former Software Analyst (Former Employee), Chennai – March 27, 2013
Pros: no good thing to share, salary is somewhat better
Cons: 1 no work life balance. treating employees like captives, forcing support employees to work 14-16 hours daily. even if there is no work, low level employees are forced to stay in the office at late nights, weekends by their leads. 2. office is fully occupied with politics, very bad hrs, they are not caring empoyees problems. 3. leads are behaving childish, complaining about people behind them, torturing them like anything. 4. no career growth
In the chennai office, even employees cannot talk among them other than official meetings, KTs. It is a kind of unwritten rule, if they do so, will be scolded by Leads like they are wasting time.

Fast paced gaming environment
Buyer/Planner (Current Employee), Las Vegas, NV – March 12, 2013
Pros: flexibility in managing assigned commodities
Cons: often unrealistic delivery expectations by stakeholders
A typical day involves reading and replying to e-mails and voice mails, responding to vendors and internal customers. Attend pre-planned and impromptu meetings to implement engineering changes, and expedite deliveries. Review MRP daily, write purchase orders or amend orders for delivery changes. Review accounts payable outstanding invoices and discuss – more... with vendors to resolve issues. Negotiate price and supply terms with vendors. Review supplier bid packages and contract proposals. Evaluate purchasing requirements with sales, engineering, production, and customer service departments. Meet with management as needed to ensure they are kept abreast of supply shortages, vendor issues, quality problems, or new requirements. Obtain approvals as needed for purchase orders above purchase limits. Verify accurate documentation maintained for all drop ship deliveries and confirm receipts completed within inventory database for accurate vendor payment and customer invoicing. My co-workers and I each have assigned commodity responsibilities, however we ensure cross training to ensure coverage of all commodities. I've had an opportunity to learn new commodities in the gaming environment. The most enjoyable part of my job is also the hardest part of the job. It is the degree of complexity in what I purchase and the depth at which I work with suppliers and internal stakeholders. – less

"Widget" Board Release Engineer
Electrical Engineer III (Former Employee), Las Vegas, NV – February 1, 2013
Worked from 8 to 5 and was the main contact for getting things developed. Created several small "widget" boards for the gaming industry. Trained other junior engineers. Learned how to use Agile for product release. Did not like new manager. The hardest part of the job was spending so much time on documentation and tracking down other peoples progress – more... on related issues. I liked EMC compliance testing/troubleshooting. – less

Payroll Supervisor (Former Employee), Las Vegas, NV – January 16, 2013
Pros: would buy us lunch every quarter and the bonuses

I was responsible for entering data to ADP for payroll, rate changes, personal information etc. I learned how to fund our 401K to Fidelity. The management was not fair to the employees. I enjoyed working with the majority of my co-workers. Having to work on Holidays at times. The employees that appreciate what you do for them

self-motivating non supervised position
Service Technician (Former Employee), Jamaica, NY – December 31, 2012
It was a good addition to real technician work with very valuable machinery. Management was small and didnt interact with other co-workers due to small amounts of workers and various shifts. The easy part of the job is that i love to repair any issue which i got to do freely and almost at will.

Working with Vendors and speaking with other employees.
Security Officer (Current Employee), Las Vegas, NV – June 22, 2012
My typical day at work, is coming in and saying good morning to the security officer and then going over the daily log, from the night before. . I have learned about our wave-link system. It is our CCT system that monitors other properties around the world. PTZ system ( Pan, Tilt, Zoom) cameras.

Management and coworkers have been supportive in my development – more... as a better officer in dealing with upper management and vendors. The hardest part of the job was learning how to make new badge for new employees. The most enjoyable part was coming in and speaking with other employees and asking how their day went. – less

Bally allowed my to grow with them. This is very important to me.
Production Control Operations Materials Lead (Former Employee), Las Vegas, NV – May 3, 2012
Bally was a Great company to work for for me. I came to Bally as a temp and in 8 weeks I was hired. Most temps who came in years after myself were not afforded the same. Some were temps for almost 2 years before being hired. Another thing, Bally was hiring most of the manufacturing floor as temps at low wages. The temps caught on quickly. Bally was – more... determined to make shipping dates, so temps moved slowly to guarantee overtime including 10 hour days and 7 days per week constantly. Myself I had no control over the manufacturing floor but my department had to always provide support to them so constant overtime became a part of the way of life working there. I once worked 28 days in a row for this company. This is a bad practice. One personnel become run down and weakened, people get sick often and paying overtime must really cut into the profits the company is trying to create. – less

No respect for employees, they are treated as slaves!
Associate (Former Employee), Bangalore – April 22, 2013
Pros: fun activities are organized from time to time
Cons: no time to participate and enjoy as employees are treated as slaves.
Management and HR believes that the pay of employees at Bally is good so they have full rights on their personal lives.. Employees are made to work on weekends, new years and day in and night. Employee cannot ask for long leaves if he wishes to visit his hometown or incase of emergency. Work culture is pathetic.

In a nutshell, zero work life balance, – more... zero respect for employees requests and genuine concerns and no professionalism at all.

Good for people who are looking to have a high pay but ready to make their lives hell. – less
