IGT reviews

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.

This company bestows no loyalty unto its employees. It does however, expect total loyalty from its employees. Management has created a duty trickle down system in which management duties are performed by Technicians. Hourly workers are expected to create schedules for other hourly employees. Management is not involved with the scheduling process therefore cannot control overtime, but management will punish everyone when overtime is generated. The schedule creators ensure maximum overtime for themselves. Hourly employees are expected to write their own yearly reviews and come up with their own yearly company goals. Management looks over the reviews and passes them on. The rating you get on your review has absolutely nothing to do with the amount of pay increase you get, if you are lucky enough to get a pay increase. No upward mobility. No encouragement or mentoring from management on how to achieve promotions or increases in pay. Management will tell you tenure means something and at the same time eliminate positions of its highest tenure people. This company has no standard practices on how to engage, rate, review and pay its employees base on performance. Management implores the if i like you, ill give you more approach to pay increases. Management displays no professionalism at all and this also trickles down to the other employees. The company uses a employee survey that has been so abused over the year that no one is truthful for fear of retaliation.
