Pros

- steady pay - work by yourself - good team - make customers happy by giving a sense of safety

Cons

- product line is very complex, and customers issues are often unique and require a lot of troubleshooting - compared to similar jobs (like Dish in my experience), dispatch was disorganized and unhelpful - support systems are lacking

Pros

I've worked for the company for 40+ years, I'm treated with respect and my efforts are recognized by my Director and other ADT leaders. They give me the autonomy to manage my department and value my experience and insight. They offer a solid benefits package. ADT leads by example with their cultural markers and ensures that rules and laws are followed. I love the collaboration I have with our other departments.

Cons

Obviously, we all want more money, especially given the prices of everything, it's always nice to make more money, but I've checked the compensation and benefits in similar positions outside of ADT and I feel ADT is paying a fair wage and when I factor in the benefits package, they are above average in overall compensation.

Pros

None other than a paycheck

Cons

Dominate you and push you even though it is hot and you are working hard, they will complain and yell at you about their crummy inventory system or people complain. They do not care if you are injured. Tell them and lose your job. The lady in charge is psychotic at best. Called me months after I didnt work there asking ridiculous questions and demanding answers. She's a short minority female that hates men apparently. Hates everyone and everything from what I saw. There's no peace at this job. If you keep it 3 months, you're an extremely hard worker.
