Company Rebrand, again!
This company is turning into a f*cking joke... Rebranding every few years. What abomination of a name will they come up with this time? How much money will this corporate rebrand cost? What a waste of time and money! Barry Cottle and the... — read more
Increases
I did not get it. Please do it cost of living. So I resigned I was able to find a job with another company that is paying me more than what I was getting after 10 years with Scientific Games.
If you don't get at least a 6.2% salary increase, then you're effectively getting a pay cut after Inflation.
If you don't get at least a 6.2% salary increase, then you're effectively getting a pay cut after Inflation, since that's what the annual CPI was since last year.
Change
I understand the company has some new executives and they'll be making changes to all the Departments. I think it's a good idea they can revamp the project management, engineering development manufacturing and so on. It's time for some changes in... — read more
G2E
With the coronavirus surging in Nevada is there going to be a gaming show this year? I can't see people coming in from all over the world just to get sick.
It’s been a good 10+ years
I’ve enjoyed my time with the company. My job has been okay (I've definitely worked in worse situations) and I like the people I work with. It’s been a good run. However, we all know how management is. No transparency, communication and... — read more
This doesn't spell good news
Too many changes for my taste here lately. Executives are leaving, the company is shrinking by "focusing" on specific areas while everybody else is expanding... This can't spell good things for our future here. I think it's time to start looking for... — read more
High debit
$9.43 billion in debt, how is this going to get paid.? There is no way they can make a profit. It all goes to intrest.
Changes?
What is the perspective on this Company for upcoming year?
WTH
Why would Bally purchase the Trop in Las Vegas? What about all that debt?
What did everyone think of the Town Hall?
I personally thought it was an improvement over the last one, and was leagues better than the first 2020 town hall, especially with Eileen Moore Johnson and Mike Eklund coming prepared and staying on their game for the most part. I also noticed some... — read more
Return to office
AR employees going back to work in the office at this company?
‘Aristocrat’ Games
Might as well call it ‘Aristocrat’ Games at this point. Matt once said it looks like we are hiring a lot of Aristocrat expats and opportunities for growth for current capable employees would be coming soon. It’s not that it looks like it, it is very... — read more
What is performance review for?
It is totally useless for the worker of Sci Games. It seems to me that it is imposed only to put pressure on those who think that the performance has some importance. My colleague was a brilliant worker and he was laid off anyway. I tried to do my... — read more
Salaries
Is SciGame salaries higher than IGT and ATI?
Pressure to quit
Lately my manager has resorted to micromanaging the c-ap out of me but will not provide any form of support or guidance when needed. I feel as if he is goading me to quit and is making snide little remarks pertaining to it. I’ve been here for many... — read more
Salary Cuts
My salary was cut in March, and remains cut. I heard all the VPs had their orginal salary returned. Has anyone not in upper management had Their original salary reinstated?
Q4
How is it looking for Q4?
C-sino Shutdown
I was just at stations and notice the people within the c-sino do not have their masks worn properly and they really do not temperature check you. I know a shutdown is bad for the industry but it's coming and when that occurs the manufacturers are... — read more
Gaming industry dead in the water
Let’s face the music. Who has the money to spend when the economy is in the toilet? People won’t congregate in c-sino’s when Covid cases are skyrocketing. Business aren’t looking for new product that won’t show a profit during this time. Will that... — read more
Will there be more layoffs?
At least before the end of the year?
Sacrificial Lamb Problem
I've been here around 8 years now and have noticed a rise in recent years of keeping around poor-performing employees to serve as "sacrificial lambs" for company-wide layoffs instead of properly downsizing departments or getting rid of dead weight in... — read more
Hold onto your chips
First SG furloughed/laid off employees with the hope of weathering the economic crisis that Covid 19 has caused and now rumors of more layoffs (if true) are on the rise. These "cost effective" methods are just a short term reprieve to the real issue... — read more
ATI looking to buy SciGames
I heard ATI is looking to buy scigames and split it up into several parts, anyone else hear this?
Layoffs
I heard SG is getting ready to do more layoffs. Has anyone heard this?
Reorg
Any news on the reorganization? I know they got rid of a lot of long timers but they didn't get rid of all of them it seems some people are pets.
Curaleaf
All the SG trash is being recycled at Curaleaf.
Product managment. And the senior management
The most incompetent hacks ever seen in software development. Oh....we got a new app???? Let’s throw another app server on more HW. What an f’n joke. How many apps running on separate servers are required to run a c-sino????? We’ve... — read more
Is it finally done?
Looks like no layoffs today after all. Does that mean we are finally done? After the last two days, I really hope we are.
Systems Divison SVP should be fired
Sethuram had a meeting couple weeks back with the entire team regarding MacAndrews intent to sell their positions. One would expect a person at his position to be able to speak and communicate well but it was all the opposite. He was reading from a... — read more
Layoffs today and yesterday
Lots of people across the company.
LAYOFFS 7/28 Chicago office.
No known count as of yet.
More today?
What's happening with layoffs? Will there be more today? Also, what else was hit yesterday other than Las Vegas? Several people said their locations were hit as well but didn't specify what those locations are. I'm just trying to figure out how... — read more
