Gun Lake Casino named one of West Michigan’s best employers

Gun Lake Casino (GLC) has been named one of the best companies to work for in West Michigan by the National Association for Business Resources (NABR). This year, GLC has achieved "Elite" status, marking an elevation in the recent rankings after being recognized on the list for five consecutive years.

“We are immensely proud to receive the prestigious Elite award as one of the Best and Brightest Companies to Work For in West Michigan,” said Sal Semola, Chief Executive Officer of GLC. “We strongly believe that investing in team members is not just the right thing to do, but essential for continued success and growth as an organization.”

Gun Lake Casino is currently looking to fill nearly 400 positions. The company offers a package that includes 401k and company match, free medical, dental, and vision insurance, paid time off, free shift meals, tuition reimbursement, and training programs aimed at career advancement.

A major expansion project is under construction at GLC, which is known as Phase 5. It will bring a 252-room Four Diamond hotel, multiple indoor swimming pools, a full-service spa, new dining options, and more. The $300 million expansion is scheduled to open in 2025. 

Amid the Phase 5 expansion plans, the casino, in March, named Trevor Hayden as its new Vice President of Operations. Under this role, Hayden oversees various departments, including gaming, operations, and facilities.
