Bally's Interactive reviews

1) Weak management - to be fair it is more a question of naive/inexperienced management/team-leaders (not including mine of course - yes HR I know that there is no anonymity at Gamesys), barring a few who really should not be in their roles. 2) Considerably higher turnover than I have ever experienced before (though this may be a case of taking the opportunity to gain new skills and heading off somewhere that pays more). 3) Best not to take the word of their HR recruiters as fact, they are very keen to say whatever you want to hear to get you on board given the large number of vacancies. [The HR personnel themselves are however exceptional.] You will be asked to provide names of ex-colleagues for head-hunters. 4) The Dev services team is heavily loaded, i.e. gaining access to PC/MAC support can be delayed. 5) Please keep in mind that Gamesys monitor the job search engines for when you do decide to put your CV up as part of your transition to a new role - you may thus experience a sudden increase in work-load when they detect it.

Unfortunately I was bullied and abused by my direct manager from day one. He micromanages the whole team and requests unecessary and overly detailed reports. He created a very stressful work environment that affected me both phisycally and mentally and I was eventually forced out of the company. Reading the other reviews it seems a common practice of this company and I'm not sure that senior managers are fully aware of what is really going on.
