Pros

- Remote Work Policy - Fly out to Las Vegas for important meetings

Cons

- Horizontal Organization in which 100s of people report to General Manager and General Manager have no clue of your contribution due to lot of people reporting to them and therefore GM rely on hearsay of several people when it comes to performance review which leads to lot of politics and favoring. GM have no mechanism to filter anyone's inflated praise or biased criticism. - Lots of Product Manager are hired while there are no Engineering Manager. Product Manager control backlog and do not have any knowledge about technology and only prioritize feature but rarely tech debt. When system can no longer handle the feature and requires rollback from production, at that time they prioritize tech debt.

Pros

Peers and teammates are supportive of each other. For a digital organization, the pay was very good but I believe they've significantly reduced salaries. Some of the managers were very good.

Cons

The Caesars Digital team operated in a flat organization, where some GMs were trying to actively manage teams of 75-150 individuals. Career growth is almost non-existent as a result. C-suite management was non-existent and came from finance or hospitality backgrounds. Org success was purely tied to annual EBITDA and without understanding of how a digital/engineering organization should be run, resulting in disconnected employees (most of whom were remote), lack of scalable structure, and zero oversight.
