Pros

Do you want adrenaline and a straight forward security job? This one does not lack in that department especially if you want a easy security position.

Cons

Leadership is the massive issue. They have no consideration of your personal life and responsibilities. So I’m sorry to all the current or past employees that has kids because they don’t care about that either it was my personal last straw when my “Captain” told me that the only legal obligation I had to my kid was picking them up and dropping them off and not even the fact that I am a single parent that is trying to raise my kid. DO NOT believe your agreed time of work with them by any means! I worked with them for about a month and a half but even then I wish I had actually gotten better leadership because if I did then I probably would’ve made this job a career.

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.
