Mohegan Sun Casino Stops Match, Cuts Pay
Businessweek reports that the Mohegan Sun casino is also cutting the pay of all 9,800 employees. Pay for vice presidents and senior management will be cut by 10%, middle managers’ pay will be cut by 7.5%, and the pay for non-management salaried and hourly employees will be reduced by 4%, effective February 1.
“Due to unprecedented market conditions, the authority has been forced to make a number of difficult, but necessary, decisions to reduce our operating costs,” said Mitchell Etess, president and Chief Executive of Mohegan Sun, according to the news report.
The casino company plans to avoid layoffs.
