Pros

This company is ok for someone that's either retired, or looking to put extra cash in their pockets. The pay is not an income you could live comfortably with. The great part about it is the weekly pay.

Cons

The uniforms are very cheap, they fall apart within a month, the opportunity for advancement isn't good at all, the hiring process is too harsh for the actual job that you will be doing.

Pros

Some of the people you meet are cool and you make real good connections with the professional guards (not a lot, but i got lucky)

Cons

*Management doesn't answer their phones *Management don't want to help you address the issues onsite unless the manager of that site has an issue. *Rude and non responsive office. *Operations managers and client managers are useless. (Their assistants do a better job than they do) *The guards are not the priority to management and the company. Very childish and hostile environment. *A lack of structure, communication and support.
