Casinos are notorious employers when it comes to IT. Imagine a less competent Amazon and you're getting close. IT is an afterthought. IT staff work in the casino, but they work underground. There are secret doors that lead to poorly arranged underground data centers and cramped cubicle farms.

I remember visiting one of the world's biggest advertising companies, prime NYC real estate with a vast marble-and-brass foyer as an additional flex ... then a door leading down to the dim dark rat-infested basement where the IT folks were. The "creatives" were many floors up, with their cafes and lounge areas and foosball tables like engineers at a FAANG. I saw lesser versions of this in finance, retail, and many other industries plus academia. I can well believe casinos are worse than most, but not necessarily in terms of physical accommodation.
