A Strip casino has laid off an undisclosed number of table games dealers in recent days, according to multiple sources familiar with the situation.
Fontainebleau, the $3.7 billion megaresort at the north end of the Strip, would not disclose the exact number of jobs that were eliminated. Two sources at the property with direct knowledge of the layoffs said the total could be “dozens” or “as many as 60” dealers.
In response to questions about the staffing adjustments, Fontainebleau Las Vegas issued the following statement:
“We continue to evaluate our business needs and adjust our hiring strategy accordingly. It is a customary practice in every industry and Fontainebleau Las Vegas continues to have a positive impact in the approximate 6,250 current members it employs as well as the multiple vendors and partners associated with the resort.”
