Pros

I can only speak for the Atlanta Branch, but that branch has some awesome managers and workers. My co-workers were the best and were the only reason I stayed for 2 years.

Cons

First, I have been working at Loomis for 2 years so my comment about this company is based on 2 full years of observation. There is no diversity on the upper management team. They all consist of older, white men and it has been that way for 30 years. There has been no person of color or woman that has ever been in the upper management position (i.e. CEO, CFO) in this company. Loomis has no problem reserving these better paying jobs to white men but throw all their women and people of color at the bottom with the low wages, and there is no upward mobility. So, they have systematically designed this discriminatory system in place to keep minorities at the bottom, and I believe they do that to offset the high turnover rate (Loomis has the worst turnover rate that I have seen and this is coming from someone with 15+ years of retail experience----Loomis' turnover rate is worse than most major retail organizations) because they can always find a woman or a person of color to throw at the bottom but these same people will never move up to attain the higher paid positions. Trash company. Second, LOOMIS is an antiworker establishment. That means that they put their bottom line over their workers at ALL cost. I have never seen a company that goes out of its way to shaft its workers. From picking the cheapest and worst health insurance for us (Loomis' medical benefits is trash, just like the company) to shafting us on the pay and the hours that we are paid. I was paid $13 per hour to count millions of dollars a day. Does that sound right to you? $13/hr does not cover the accountability and the liability that comes with counting such large amounts of money, and we were not getting 40 hours per week (another shaft). We were lucky if we got 30 hours that week, as Loomis does not like paying its workers overtime because that would be time and a half (in the state of Georgia). Most of my co-workers had to get 2nd jobs because the amount of money that we were paid compounded with the limited amount of hours we were getting did not cover basic living expenses in Atlanta (or anywhere). I left the company recently to attend school and notice that they took my paid sick time (that was given to me) from my final pay check. What company do you know does that? If you decide to leave the company and you have taken sick time or personal time anytime throughout the year, Loomis will get that back (another shaft) in your final paycheck. Loomis will always find a way to get its money back from its workers; they simply do not value us enough not to. When I left, I was given no exit interview. They never asked me my input on my experience working at this company. In fact, as a worker, they will never ask you for your input or feedback on anything. Most companies ask for their workers' feedback on a regular, sometimes daily basis to improve the working experience. Not Loomis. Because they do not care. Workers are not valued at this company. We are a means to an end because at the end of the day we will just be replaced by another person. Don't get me wrong, most companies are like that too but they, at least, try to make their workers not feel that way by improving the working experience. Most companies have realized that their future is in their workers. So, these companies have stepped up their investments on their workers. Amazon gave their workers $3 dollar raises, and you can pretty much get your entire college tuition paid for by Starbucks. Loomis has done none of those things. At the end of the day, this is all about sustainability. Your workers are your future, and Loomis (as a whole), simply has not invested in its workers, and because of that, I do not believe in this company's future. I give Loomis about 5 more years before it really folds into acquisition. You can see this in their stock value. I would not recommend any of my personal friends to invest stock in this company because the stock value is horrible and this company has no future. That being said, if you plan to work here, make it temporary. Use this company to get to somewhere better because they are better out there.

Pros

Only pros to the job were learning how ATMs worked and how banks got their money, its interesting work, and a good foot in the door for other careers security and/or law enforcement.

Cons

There are more cons than pros, during my time in loomis milwaukee (branch #5920) everyone in management and leadership seems to get away with unprofessional behavior, it seems as if all they care about is whether or not routes are being finished or if your stealing and they want to catch you. On multiple occasions I have told my former manager at loomis who still is employed there that I had problems with some of the leads and staff, she "addressed" it by throwing my name out and the gave them more ammo to keep behaving such ways, it happened with another former employee as well, let me not get started on the workplace relationships, the Milwaukee branch is called the brothel branch for a reason by their sister branches. When I first started there was a lead fired for having inappropriate relations with the tellers, then the new manager for the CMS vault department that got hired was my former lead from the CIT/AST department, no vault experience, only because he worked alot of hours and had some close relationship with the manager, he also had a history with having relations with the CMS employees and talking about it to everyone in the facility, thus leading to the women quitting their jobs. Hes no longer the CMS manager now but he became the operations manager now, he was also talked to by the branch manager about a picture that was circulating through the vault of his body parts and the branch manager still hired him to be the cms manager knowing it. There is no point in even going to HR with this company as well, they wont do much, they'll "address" things but the problems keep going on. Nobody deserves to be treated the way new hires get treated without knowing whats going to happen once they've been there for a couple of months. Im glad I quit this company because corporate only seems to care about how many contracts they can acquire and which branches make the most money.
