Pros

its a great oppurtunity to excel in a security field and or police if you chose that path.

Cons

the lack of uniformity. There is No AMERICAN FLAG on the uniform. i spoke to co workers and they said if someone is from a different country it might offend them thats why we dont wear the American Flag. if they are from a different country working inside the United States of America and they dont like our flag then why work in this country. This is America. and Im proud to be here. i would like to wear a flag on my uniform.

Pros

Once you've networked with the right people it becomes all success and excellence. Through my years of experience with Allied Universal, I was fortunate enough to work with the right accommodations and site placements. I even had a chance to demonstrate supervisor status that I never did before in private security. I think Allied Universal gives chances to anyone eager enough to try gainful employment with opportunities to prove it. One quality pro factor that Allied Universal offers is through your journey of work placements at client sites, one client site will eventually become your primary site by choice to stay permanently as a career.

Cons

Career growth is slow because Allied Universal is humongous as both a company and private corporation. Opportunities don't exist often after getting your Guard Card but if you take the opportunities as an opportunistic, you'll do fine and reach the next stages in bottom management.
