Pros

Good money for easy work. Leadership - the top of the crop from Jieho & Roy, Quynh, Connie and Pam are excellent leaders who have a plan and a vision for the company that they want you to be a part of. Transparency - I have never worked for a company that is so transparent with its goals. Not only that management and owner are always listening to what you have to say. Hell they even give you the owners phone number, in which you can call anytime. Fun interactive work environment - There's is nothing like working in a casino. The players dealers and follow associates are so diverse, and you get to communicate with them on a daily bases. If you are in the entertainment business this is a great place for networking.

Cons

Cons: Boredom/repetition - When you first start you will go through training and come out knowing only two games. When you first get in the casino you will probably be on baccarat a lot which is a easy game, but is very repetitive. Staffing - To some overtime could be a good thing. For most it's frustrating and exhausting. Some shifts do overtime everyday. Staffing is really short right now and they need all the bodies they can get. Staffing is also hurting development. Your going to want to learn new games, but they won't have time to train you, because they need you on a table right away.

Pros

Great starting wage, diverse and intelligent coworkers, and an attendance system that works on points with the ability to gain points back. Disneyland works off of a point system as well, but this one has a lot of flexibility when it comes to attendance.

Cons

The night hours took a little to get used to, but some of the brightest people I've ever met were during night shifts.

Pros

Diverse Company, Lengthy training, Okay Benefits

Cons

Hours vs pay, expectations of a job that's basically like card counting except chips. They expect you to be able to do VERY fast mental math without aids. Basically you sit on card games on keep a count and watchful eye on all players and dealers. You are a 3rd party that's not very welcome. Is keeping track of several players several payouts and your own chip pile easy? Heck no. Can you constantly calculate within seconds 1.2 times 35? 35*125? 150*270? all day? Then also understand complex card games, working in the middle of the night or anytime of the day? Its not worth 17 or 15 an hour! I have working a long time in accounting and can follow a lot of complex operations and calculations on my own with and without a calculator but this is ridiculous.
