Great place to work at!

Barback/Bartender (Former Employee)
Valley Center, CA

I worked at Valley View Casino full-time for more than a year

ProsGreat Benefits and pay. A lot of potential for growth. Very nice atmosphere and the people you work with are easy going and friendly

ConsExposed to second hand smoke. There is a non-smoking section but you are not always assigned to the same area of work.

Advice to Senior ManagementKeep up the good work, I know if I had the opportunity I would definitely return to work there in a heart beat.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Overall good experience, well managed, good place to start

Table Games Dealer (Former Employee)
Valley Center, CA

I worked at Valley View Casino part-time for more than a year

ProsNice management and property, very good food for the employees and free, nice co-workers, it's a teaching casino where supervisors help you become better at your job

Conslow pay for tipped employees due to clientele, part time employees often get "forced out" early, more inconvenient location than surrounding casinos, takes a long time to become full time.

Advice to Senior Managementtake better care of part time employees if you want to keep them by limiting force outs, making transition to full time a quicker process, and certainly not moving people from full to part time when avoidable.

Great Employer, good place to join if you want to up, or move laterally.

ProsFree lunch.
Open 24 hours a day, so many shift available.
Company rewards for 1, 3, 5, 10 years of service.
Referral program to make extra $$$

ConsSmoke-filled environment (like all casinos)
Opening 24 hours a day, so you may have to work grave.
Can be stressful.

Advice to Senior ManagementIt would be nice to try to improve the air filtration system so that the air was a little bit cleaner.

Great people, not so great management

Anonymous Employee (Former Employee)

I worked at Valley View Casino full-time for more than a year

ProsThey know how to hire great people. Most of the people you run into are friendly, hard working, easy to get along with. They have good benefits and the employees have their own dining room, kitchen staff and chef. Plus you are fed for free.

ConsThere is no giving notice. If you decide to quit, and tell them, they want you gone immediately. Management says there are there to listen to concerns and make things better but often it seemed they were more interested in not making a fuss and catering to favorites.

Advice to Senior ManagementHire people who know what they are doing and stop the nepotism.

Favoritism

Anonymous Employee (Former Employee)

I worked at Valley View Casino

ProsFree Meals.
Great Coworkers.
Great internal training programs
Security personnel is professional and helpful to employees and customers.
Beautiful location and views of the mountains and valleys.
Good bonus structure for salaried employees.

ConsFavoritism and nepotism run rampant.
Very unprofessional gaming commission.
Inconsistent with disciplinary procedures.
Not held accountable by federal agencies that assist employees.
Tribal members do not have to follow the same rules as other employees.

Advice to Senior ManagementUpper management is uneducated and lacks good judgement. Management is formed of cliques and tribal members with no education or training skills.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
