Pros

A few hardworking peers (but they're the minority) Really good benefits Totally decent cafe onsite Good vacation allotment Reno has an inexpensive cost of living

Cons

Mindblowingly incompetent management, most of whom have no clue about the industry or what IGT really does. They constantly hire expensive (but ridiculously underwhelming) new people down in Las Vegas while the Reno people make much less and do much more. There is a terrible, horrible morale problem although LV upper management tries to pretend it away and paint Reno as disgruntled. The problem for them is that many of us didn't drink the Kool Aid. I ran myself into the ground, waiting and hoping something would change but ultimately I stayed about a year and a half too long. It actually hurt to see how badly the company had been destroyed. It used to be so great.

Pros

Great department. A family atmosphere. Good benefits.

Cons

The new transition has gutted the company. Do more with less. Management has no say. The execs that have no knowledge make employment decisions. Seniority or job knowledge doesn’t matter to the people in the ivory tower.Do more with less. No real raises, no chance for advancement.
