G4S reviews

- Boredom sets in quickly; how much reading can one really do at a time. - If they lose the account you worked, prepare to wait for a while without pay before you find another suitable position - Don't plan on getting unemployment in the event you get laid off/they lose an account. They always have a bunch of other accounts you could theoretically take but don't want to for one reason or another (location, pay, hours don't fit with your schedule) so if you apply for unemployment, you'll almost always get denied because they'll point to the list of open positions that you didn't accept. - Staff at office is incredibly unfriendly and unknowledgeable. - Supervisors/management basically never communicate with you. I worked an account that G4S lost and didn't find out that I was losing my job until a week prior to it ending, and that was only through a coworker as opposed to any official communication from management. As a result, I was forced to wait 6 (unpaid) weeks before getting another position.

Management bullies their staff. Compensation is very poor. They promoted me to a site management position with no increase in compensation! Training in my new position was very poor.
