Pros
Working at a locals casino like Coast gets your foot in the door of the casino business. As a dealer or cocktail waitress, you're typically not going to start at a Strip property - you're going to have to start at a pub or a locals casino. Coast is the much-smaller group of locals casinos compared to Station, which is the 800-lb gorilla. Plus, with Station's presence ever expanding into more upscale properties like Red Rock, Station is a far better choice to begin your casino career.
Cons
In 2006, Coast became a part of Boyd Gaming, one of the worst gaming companies for employee relations. This company is especially bad if you're in any kind of trade union.
