Gala Grinds Axe
Not 2 years ago, Gala, in a bid to save money axed all it’s Assistant Managers including 3 of my friends as a cost cutting exercise. Once more it seems that, that particular role in a casino or bingo club is jinxed.
On Wednesday, all staff were having meetings up and down the country and it was clear that something wasn’t right, 5 clubs had already closed down this year and rumours were rife. The day after the meetings Memos went up in every Gala
As you are aware, the industry has, over the past two years, faced an unprecedented level of decline due to the impact of the smoking ban and punitive legislative change. As a result the company has reviewed every aspect of its business and a key part of this is the way in which our clubs are structured to meet the challenge
Assistant and Deputy Managers, Team Leaders and Departmental Heads all on the “High Risk” of losing jobs, once again and then they will restructure. I understand there is a recession, and that new Government taxes and the smoking ban are affecting business, but why are the axing the most loyal staff? Shouldn’t it be last in, first out?
Gala were the first to fasttrack managers in the gaming industry, mostly all from the bingo operations to manage casinos ……. we said then it was a mistake …….nowts changed.
So another few of my ex workmates hit the dole queue
