Okay as long as you didn't question
Valet Parker (Former Employee), Cherokee, NC – June 17, 2013
It was a good place to work but you couldn't question anything and they didn't care about family issues and if you had family emergencies and had to miss a day. Most coworkers like any place are great to work with but those few who are the ladder climbers would throw you under the bus.

Best place to observe people
Security Officer (Former Employee), Metropolis, IL – June 6, 2013
Your typical day at Harrah's revolves around one thing customer service. This can mean anything from turning back underage patrons, assisting in handing out jackpots to escorting drunks. You never knew what was going to happen and for the most part made the days enjoyable.

Very Stressful
Supervisor (Former Employee), Joliet, IL – June 3, 2013
Pros: guest
Cons: guest
Very stressful place to work as a Supervisor. You are always second guessed on your decision making skills. Other Supervisors are afraid to do their jobs in risk to be termed. If you work there as a Supervisor, you better know your place. It's is about the front-line employees and management above you. And also, kiss you life and friends goodbye because – more... you are going to lose touch with both. The property says they have integrity, but check out the new about them giving out VIP membership to political figures. – less

needs a human factor
Table games dealer (Former Employee), Maryland Heights, MO – June 3, 2013
Pros: good pay
Cons: pays very little attention to the needs of its workers in a hostile, emotionally charged enviornment.
At Harrahs you had to stay on your toes. When people loose thier money they automatically blame you instead of themeslves. management did not allow me to be human and have a zero tolerance for disrespect and bad behavior. instead they told me to suck it up, take it, and keep smiling. Even if the customer is becoming hostile using profanity and making – more... other players and my evening miserable. – less

The dark side of professional growth
Customer Service/Marketing/Sales (Former Employee), Omaha, NE – May 29, 2013
Each day managers would complain about how much they disliked their job. Other employees would complain they entire shifts on a daily basis. Customers were rude and inappropriate at times. Advancement was promised, however nothing ever came of it. The hardest aspect was the long hours on your feet with little reward. The most enjoyable part of the job – more... was the free employee buffet. – less

productive
SECURITY OFFICER (Former Employee), New Orleans,LA – May 9, 2013
Pros: health benefits, bonus checks, employee day and paid time
Cons: blackout days and the points system
A typical day on this job would be very busy and steady work. I learned on this job gaming regulations and the importance of patrons and staff safety in the casino. Management there when need, very hands on. Co-workers there when need. The hardest part of the job would be dealing with outrage patrons. The most enjoyable part of this job will be meeting – more... different people. – less

No raises and more work. Yea thats what everyone wants!
Sous Chef (Former Employee), Tunica, MS – May 4, 2013
Pros: 10+ hour work days, backstabbing, write ups, listening to employees complain
Cons: there are no cons the whole place is a con so go ahead and sell it already!
Economy started going downhill so labor got cut back so all the chefs had to "support" our employees work areas to cover gaps in coverage even though the union employees complained about less hours even though they didn't realise we were covering their union jobs. (idiots) The employees in the buffet stab each other in the back each day so they have – more... something to talk about rather than focus on the guests. If you get caught breathing the wrong way you will get documented so watch out for this area. The paperman cometh, and that right so! – less

OK place to work
Dual Rate Supervisor (Former Employee), Atlantic City, NJ – May 3, 2013
The management here definately subscribes to furthering its own culture. You have to drink the Kool Aid to get along. Advancement seems difficult.

Fun Workplace
Main Banker (Former Employee), East Chicago, IN – April 25, 2013
Pros: free lunch
Cons: short breaks
Balancing a cash drawer of 180k, excellent customer service, and data entry. For the most part management is ok. The co-workers are great people from many diverse backgrounds. The hardest part of the job is standing on your feet for long periods of time. The most enjoyable is meeting all the different customers and the stories they have to tell.

Working in table games is fun and exciting.
Dealer (Former Employee), Tunica, MS – April 18, 2013
Pros: having to work 8 hours with your break included.
Cons: there are no cons.
Having fun with the customer and enjoying the game that I'm dealing. It was fun and exciting to learn how to deal dice, blackjack, roulette and the carnival games that the casino have in them. The managers are every easy to get alone with as long as you're doing your job. It's fun to work with your co-workers because you have to look out for each other. – more... Having to deal with a unsatisfied customer. When you have done your job to the best of your ability and supervisor notice it. – less
