Pros

if you need something part time for about 6 weeks you can make 550 bucks every two weeks in their training program

Cons

I was the fastest in my class at all the drills, but was terminated after 6 weeks of training for no apparent reason. If you work here be sure to keep looking for other jobs because you never know when you will be terminated. I gave up 2 other jobs because they said I was "hired", but then after working 20 hours a week for the first 2 months I was there I was fired, and even had more debt than which I started the job with. Keep to yourself during training and be serious the whole time, the people who got hired had no personality and sometimes wouldn't say a word the whole class. Don't make jokes or enjoy the training at all, because they are looking to see if you can maintain your composure when the casino gets loud. My advice is if you really want this job then be as quite, respectful, and honest as possible. If you act serious and look like know one will rob you they will give you a chance. Also, I had pretty bad credit and had had some charges for fighting when I was younger which probably didn't help, but I passed the initial background check and even passed the state background check so I'm not sure. Another person in training failed the drug test and got hired so really not sure what they are looking for. Basically if you're a kissass and fake you will get the job, but that's the world for you.

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).
