Pros

A lot of friendly people working in corporate

Cons

No real engineering leadership. Engineering teams are overseen by the marketing that have no understanding how to build software. The department is run by delusional VP/pretend Steve Jobs who loves big numbers but fails to invest in the most important asset of all, his people. The failure to connect with those who make his paycheck possible is obvious and the thin veneer of a fake corporate persona/ “I’m on your team attitude” only fosters the distrust even further. Engineers are treated like expendable resources and not the experts in their craft that they are. Pay is well below market less than 100k for senior engineers. The company outsources as much work as possible to get tax advantages by capitalizing expenses living internal resources a hollowed out shell and destroying morale in the process. What they don’t understand is that they could’ve profited so much more just by investing in their best employees. Leaving Caesars was the best decision I ever made. I doubled my salary in a short amount of time and moved in to a company where I am treating well and have half the stress.

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.
