Pros

My current manager and director have excellent managerial skills and use them to run a great department. The hours are flexible, the work is interesting, and the people are very professional. It's a great place to learn about the gaming industry.

Cons

It seems there are too many layoffs. I understand that a company needs to do whatever it can to progress, but laying off people and paying out millions in dividends all within 2 weeks of each other is not a good idea. Someone is making decisions that are not in IGT's best interest. IGT's best interest is Gaming. Advancement is taking too long. It may be a bad time to be looking for advancement, but with no opportunities you will lose the talent.

Really sad.

Business Outlook

Pros

Co-workers - I would never have stayed so long without great teammates and management up to the VP level. Decent pay for the area, but not compared to other locations. Depending on the department, flexible schedules were possible. Generally family friendly except for overtime.

Cons

Top management makes arbitrary decisions that have seriously hurt the company, both in the short and long term. Our department worked crazy overtime for multiple years in an effort to modernize the product and process and to keep up with our competitors. It felt like management wanted it (and the company) to fail. Other reviews referring to layoffs and firings are very accurate. The company integrity policy (that we were constantly reminded of) felt amazingly hypocritical. It was very difficult to get promotions for newer hires (hurting retention) and recruiting was already hard. Everything from facilities to IT seemed stacked against getting things done. Employee benefits had degraded significantly. I sold my stock. I am encouraging the best coworkers to leave as soon as possible. I hope the worst of what's happened comes out publicly. It is definitely not the same company as when I joined, and that's really sad.

Pros

Local area management treats their employees extremely well using every resource available to advance their careers.

Cons

Senior Management has no interest in sharing the success of the company with non-executive staff. The executive staff consistently ignores the advice of industry veterans and trust their high paid academics.
