Pros

Great for those who are in school or if your just looking for something to fill in the void in your like such as employment needed badly. Depending on the location you can work by yourself or with people. Learning experience for first time security officers Pays minor bills

Cons

Will let you go at will If something happens on sire even if its not your fault, it will not be looked into at all. Depending on your background can be treated differently Training is poor and will send your off on your way within three days after being hired Poor in following own guidelines in handbook Does not keep track of uniforms issued out If your pay is not correct, it will take a lot to get in contact with personal or be surprised if you get a call back in general to fix the problem Issues or problems are "covered up" with a smile and lies Ask for advancement within the company and it never happens uniforms and jackets tear easy, the material can either break you out or make you feel itchy

Very kind staff and takes care of veterans. A lot of opportunities to get extra hours and shifts.

Pros

The only thing that I enjoyed while working here was the team that I had the privilege to work with. My employment was on a tech team which was a vendor with a larger Tech company. I was able to network and meet some amazing people that allowed myself to connect with others in the tech industry.

Cons

My experience with this company was extremely disappointing. I raised serious workplace concerns related to disability-related treatment, harassment, and overall employee support through internal reporting channels, but I did not feel those concerns were handled with the urgency, fairness, or accountability they deserved. The issues continued for a significant period of time, despite repeated attempts to report them properly. After I provided additional details that were requested as part of the internal reporting process, I was removed from my client assignment. In my opinion, the timing and handling of that decision felt retaliatory, especially because it happened after I raised concerns and participated in the company’s reporting process in good faith. I was initially told that another placement would be pursued, and there was communication for several weeks. However, I was ultimately separated from the company under a “Non-Placement Termination.” The experience left me feeling unsupported and gave me serious concerns about how employee complaints, workplace concerns, and follow-through are handled.
