Pros

The individual contributors are the best people to work with. It was a second home and family for many of us. We worked hard, we played hard, and we supported one another.

Cons

The arrival of the new CEO fractured the family feel of the company and made it more corporate. It was accepted at first due to the economy, but the new CEO and all the new VP's didn't understand what IGT does. While other companies are finding their stride, IGT seems to think oppression and scare tactics will result in better performance.

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.
