Topics regarding layoffs at International Game Technology

Is this good news for us?

Does this mean there will be no immediate need for more layoffs? Or am I just deluding myself? "International Game Technology PLC Announces Agreement To Sell Italian B2C Gaming Business For €950 Million In... — read more

Could it have been better?

I was hoping for salvation, but this seems increasingly hopeless. There is no end to dismissals. The situation is bad not only in this company but in the whole industry. I wonder if it’s all about the way the company is managed during crisis or some... — read more

December

Well we made it to December. I’ll kick things off. How does IGT fare for this month? Do you think we will get cut or perhaps will we receive a bonus? Let’s kick off the comments below.

October ?

Going into October now. How are things looking? In particular, will the Las Vegas, NV campus reopen? I’m concerned about the fate of Las Vegas. Anybody have information?

Retirement Package

Got my Retirement offer today. Not very good at all. 19 weeks salary and 19 weeks COBRA. Absolutely horrible offer. I will not be taking it! What an insult!

IGT/GTECH CORONAVIRUS LAYOFFS

Just to clarify, IGT and GTECH/Lottomatica merged a couple of years ago, and chose the name IGT. The following is my best recollection so it might have some minor errors: IGT is located in Nevada and does mostly c-sino machines. Lottomatica is a... — read more

Some good advice

When a company lays you off, it has been my observation that you, as an ex-employee of XYZ Corporation are far better off for it. They don't lay off people unless they are suffering. But - getting fired for non-performance is on you. That too isn't... — read more

You work, you get paid, end of story

Loyalty? To what? Seriously, that frame of mind is absurd. You work, you get paid, end of story. It's really that simple. When work ends- you don't get paid. When the job ends, you find another job. That's reality. That is the attitude from above... — read more

Layoffs at IGT

Layoffs happening in Reno as part of "restructuring". I saw several people being walked out on Friday, mostly long-time employees. This company has no loyalty to anyone anymore, it's time for all of us to drop our loyalties and leave on our own... — read more

Updated Rumors?

It seems like things are starting to quiet down and there is a lull in layoff rumor news. Does that mean there is some element of job security right now or is just just the calm before the storm?
