Pros

[This review is for the Livermore Casino. There are multiple managed by this company] -They will green light almost anyone, after the initial onsite interview. You are then invited to 2 days of paid training in Emeryville. ($75/day). You will be asked to drive (on your own day off) to the casino and tour it before you know if you're even hired. After 2 days of training, they then tell you if you are hired, to work at a casino in Livermore -Most of the staff is decent -Immediate response time. Applied to job and was called within a couple days. Onsite immediately thereafter. -Pay is not terrible (or fantastic, either)

Cons

-They will do a thorough background check and credit check and if you don't have excellent credit, you're not getting hired. They figure anyone who's ever had any money problems is going to rob the casino (er..?) -Many of the other people in your training class aren't the brightest bulbs.

Pros

Company invests in it's employees. The casino industry is very tough and compared to other companies out there they make an effort to take care of their people and their communities.

Cons

The company as gotten very big and sometimes you get lost in the shuffle. There is still some 'learn as you go' situations but Knighted has really come a long way to develop internal leadership, curriculums and training structures.

Pros

There’s always work to do. If you’re like me and don’t enjoy being idle, that can definitely be a positive. You have some really amazing people that you meet in between.

Cons

Leadership lacks direction and consistency, there’s little to no real accountability, just a pattern of deflection and blame-shifting. Good people often leave due to mismanagement & dysfunction ( & not the good kind).
