A luxury Strip resort has parted ways with several long-time and high-level employees, according to multiple sources. The Venetian and Palazzo casinos laid off an unknown number of employees this month, some of whom had worked at the Strip resort for over a decade.

Among those known to be affected by the layoffs are executives and senior-level employees in multiple departments, including hotel operations, marketing, celebrations/banquets, group meetings and casino hosts.

An internal memo obtained by the Review-Journal confirms the staff reductions and references the need to “streamline” the property’s operations through “reducing leadership and management positions.”

The Venetian Las Vegas — which is operated by Apollo Global Management — said that “in total, less than 50 of our more than 8,500 team members were impacted.”
