Caesars Entertainment – “Great people and benefits”

Pros

Caesars offers an amazing benefits package to full-time employees. They have a health and wellness center with work out facilities, nutritionists, personal trainers, etc. It's also a company where, if you're willing to move around frequently, you can grow quickly.

Every Friday in the lobby of each property there is an employee rally. It's a great way to engage people from every department and build work relationships. Great way to end the week (for those of us on a m-f schedule).

Cons

There has been a lot of corporate changes over the last two years. It seemed for a while that every Friday, there was another email stating more senior staff had left the company and someone new was taking their position. However, I believe that can be attributed to "growing pains" in such a time of change.

Biggest issue is a policy change in handling PTO when someone leaves the company. They no longer pay you out your earned vacation time when you separate from the company. So, if you're leaving, you better take vacation time... Or loose it.

Advice to Senior Management

I think that the "town hall" sessions with employees are a great quarterly way to keep everyone in the know of what's going on. My only suggestion would be to reinstate payout of vacation time earned when someone leaves the company. If an employee has given enough time to earn vacation, it only seems fair that when they depart they're paid out.
