MGM Mirage Las Vegas Casino Operator laid off 440 management employees. This week corporate and property level employees were cut due to the credit market crunch and cost benefit analysis of the corporate spending.
The staff reductions will save MGM Mirage corporate $75 million annually. The bulk of the layoffs were mostly in Las Vegas, Nevada where they manage the Project CityCenter Las Vegas and 10 other Strip resorts. Nationally, MGM Mirage, employees over 66,000.
Fontainebleau Las Vegas $2.9 billion resort is unfazed by credit market. The Strip real estate development keeps its distance from the construction overruns and credit market crunch similar to Crown Las Vegas, Tropicana and Cosmopolitan Las Vegas condos.
The development has an expected 2009 opening and completely financed.
Condos for sale in Fontainebleau are expected to commence this September. The marketing and promotion of these 1,018 luxury condominiums better be strong or the credit crunch market could take them down the path of its neighbors on the Las Vegas Strip.
