Is SciGame salaries higher than IGT and ATI?
Topics regarding layoffs at Scientific Games Corp.
Pressure to quit
Lately my manager has resorted to micromanaging the c-ap out of me but will not provide any form of support or guidance when needed. I feel as if he is goading me to quit and is making snide little remarks pertaining to it. I’ve been here for many... — read more

Salary Cuts
My salary was cut in March, and remains cut. I heard all the VPs had their orginal salary returned. Has anyone not in upper management had Their original salary reinstated?
Q4
How is it looking for Q4?
C-sino Shutdown
I was just at stations and notice the people within the c-sino do not have their masks worn properly and they really do not temperature check you. I know a shutdown is bad for the industry but it's coming and when that occurs the manufacturers are... — read more
Gaming industry dead in the water
Let’s face the music. Who has the money to spend when the economy is in the toilet? People won’t congregate in c-sino’s when Covid cases are skyrocketing. Business aren’t looking for new product that won’t show a profit during this time. Will that... — read more
Will there be more layoffs?
At least before the end of the year?
Sacrificial Lamb Problem
I've been here around 8 years now and have noticed a rise in recent years of keeping around poor-performing employees to serve as "sacrificial lambs" for company-wide layoffs instead of properly downsizing departments or getting rid of dead weight in... — read more
Hold onto your chips
First SG furloughed/laid off employees with the hope of weathering the economic crisis that Covid 19 has caused and now rumors of more layoffs (if true) are on the rise. These "cost effective" methods are just a short term reprieve to the real issue... — read more
ATI looking to buy SciGames
I heard ATI is looking to buy scigames and split it up into several parts, anyone else hear this?
Layoffs
I heard SG is getting ready to do more layoffs. Has anyone heard this?
Reorg
Any news on the reorganization? I know they got rid of a lot of long timers but they didn't get rid of all of them it seems some people are pets.
Curaleaf
All the SG trash is being recycled at Curaleaf.
Product managment. And the senior management
The most incompetent hacks ever seen in software development. Oh....we got a new app???? Let’s throw another app server on more HW. What an f’n joke. How many apps running on separate servers are required to run a c-sino????? We’ve... — read more
Is it finally done?
Looks like no layoffs today after all. Does that mean we are finally done? After the last two days, I really hope we are.
Systems Divison SVP should be fired
Sethuram had a meeting couple weeks back with the entire team regarding MacAndrews intent to sell their positions. One would expect a person at his position to be able to speak and communicate well but it was all the opposite. He was reading from a... — read more
Layoffs today and yesterday
Lots of people across the company.
LAYOFFS 7/28 Chicago office.
No known count as of yet.
More today?
What's happening with layoffs? Will there be more today? Also, what else was hit yesterday other than Las Vegas? Several people said their locations were hit as well but didn't specify what those locations are. I'm just trying to figure out how... — read more
Reorganize the company
Any update on the Company reorganizing? Get rid of Project Management and all the directors, slim HR down and Legal/Compliance C-sinos are not taking games.
Update on furloughed
I am still furloughed any word of if they will lay off? It makes me sick to see the company hire people when we are all still furloughed.
Second Wave of Layoffs
I hear they will be laying off more people. Those who are still furloughed will be let go. Has anyone else heard this?
Does anyone think it’s over?
Still a lot out on furloughs, does anyone think or know that more layoffs are coming? Starting to seem that no one feels safe, the way this has been handled is going to change company culture for a long time.
Coming back
Now that some c-sinos are planing to reopen..but dont be expecting to have the service team there. Vegas is making a list of who to bring back and when....we should be focused on doing this right for the customer rather than letting them down only to... — read more
It’s a good thing!
This has given a dose of reality and a slice of humble pie to some of those who were placed in a position that they did not deserve. Uninspiring fake leaders who are skilled in playing that corporate bs game. When things go wrong they are quick to... — read more

Welcome ladies and gentlemen to the 2020 Scientific Games Covid-19 Coronavirus Unemployment Draft. and with the First Pick team Finance selects....
Not many new glassdoor reviews yet...
With all the pain and angst being felt right now, I'm a little surprised there isn't an avalanche of negative reviews of SG being added to glassdoor right now. If not, then all those fake-sounding 5-star reviews of "all good", "no cons" will reign... — read more
Why are we still hiring people?
Simple question. The reason for the layoffs was lack of money. So where is the money for the new hires coming from???
Theres a ton more fat to trim.
The current austerity measures implemented are on the conservative side. There is a lot more room to cut.
Diversity and Inclusion
Please God tell me we still have the diversity and inclusion department
Who decides who gets laid off and who stays?
All I see is people with more years and more experience being forced to leave first. How is that fair?
Yesterday was bad
So many people have lost their jobs and their only source of income. I know it was expected, but that doesn't make it any easier on any of us. I'm not even sure we'll all be able to return once things go back to normal. Really hard times are ahead... — read more
Layoffs coming fast
Email sent out today from the Chief Exec of lottery stating “tough decisions need to be made”. But don’t worry, Also stated the company will come out the other side strong. At least they fired a warning shot I suppose.
Coronavirus
Nobody wants to go to a c-sino when there's a virus outbreak. Without cashflow coming in from gaming ops, they're going to need to find a way to somehow make the interest payments on the massive debt load! Layoffs coming soon?
