Hollywood
Housekeeper (Former Employee), Lawrenceburg IN 47025 – May 20, 2013
Pros: pay
Cons: never being home
A typical day at this job was to clean room after customers checked out. I learned how clean very well. Management was only there to make sure you cleaned the room up to their standards. The hardest part of my job was cleaning the rooms and missing out on a lot of family time.

Casino Life
Gaming Auditor (Former Employee), Shreveport, LA – April 2, 2013
Pros: opportunity to advance
Cons: schedule
Working at a casino was always fun. It kept you on your feet, there was no boring day. I was responsible for handling money, helping customers with there concerns. I had to balance out and balance in daily. The shifts there varies, sometimes you worked a good shift and sometimes you worked a not so good shift but overall, working at the casino was not – more... for me because I wanted to do sometime different. Working there was still a great experience. – less

A great work experience.
Marketing Representative (Former Employee), Joliet, IL – March 18, 2013
Pros: great co-workers, excellent management team.
Cons: the commute, and the shortness of work hours.
I had a great experience working with such a diverse group of people. The patrons were a pleasure to assist, and the management team always there to lend a hand, you never felt alienated. I introduced the patrons to the benefits of accquiring a players card and how to optimize its full benefits. I explained our promotional offers and also how to achieve – more... such offers. The hardest part of the job, would be the traveling, a commute that was 95 miles roundtrip. The most enjoyable part of my job was the interaction with so many different people and the stories that some would be told to me. – less

An employer in flux
Table Games Supervisor (Former Employee), Lawrenceburg, IN – March 12, 2013
Pros: great advancement
Cons: poor support structure
This company has some fantastic employees within its front line managers, but fails to properly motivate and support them. The casino business is very competitive and infrastructure may not play a central role. Today's business climate dictates a more centristic business model for success--especially in a fluctuating economy.

Company in financial difficulty
Table Games Dealer (Former Employee), Lawrenceburg, IN – February 11, 2013
Pros: in good years, compensation (including tips) was high.
Cons: high stress, nasty management, poor benefits ... let me count the ways
Company having large difficulties competing with new casinos. Large layoffs. Management seems bewildered, and has cut many things they will need to compete. Apparently moving to much larger part-time component in workforce.

A review of my job.
Player Services Host (Current Employee), Tunica, MS – February 8, 2013
I am there to help give the grave yard person his/her break before I leave.I have learned so much since working for this company. I am very familar with the LMS system. Our marketing department covers 8 departments(front desk,Club Hollywood,VIP,CIC,Reservations,Director's Club,Special Events and our Gift Shop). I have the ultimate respect for both management – more... and my fellow co-workers. I would say the most challenging part of my job is dealing with the intoxicated guests but that is when patience comes into play. Lastly,the one thing that I love the most about my job is meeting people from all walks of life. – less
