Pros

They have 13 properties nation wide. So, depending on where you want to live, there's a property near you(so to speak). There's 9 in Las Vegas,NV. And I think that's where most of the customers are.

Cons

It is very noticeable that there is favortisim from the bosses in the gaming area. The non caucasion and african american employees are felt shunned upon compared to the asian/oriental employees. I can point out mistakes and complaints from customers about certain employees and there is no reprimand. These employees continue to do things their way with no respect toward others. And I thought it was house policy for all to speak english in ALL public areas of the casino. But, these certain employees continue to speak in their language even inside the 21 pits. All day, everyday. And when I make mention that the policy is english only in the public area, I get some very nasty looks.

It was a great company to move up and gain knowledge. Opportunities presented themselves for those who work for it.

Boyd Style is Gone

Pros

The people in the trenches are often great to work with.

Cons

Boyd used to be a great place to work when Bill Boyd was running the company. Since he retired it has gone downhill fast. "Boyd Style" is no more, instead it has become a place where senior management is incompetent and hires people who will not threaten them. Watch your back if you apply here.
