My experience with G4S at Rio Grande Valley Texas

Pros

Good company and been working for G4S for 10 years. You get to work different areas, environments and get to know good people.

Cons

They need to get more sites. Try giving more opportunities to officers to move up the latter. If someone wants to move to transportation or as a CPO you have to meet G4S standard qualification. How about people that have been working here why can you exempt it and give officer the opportunity.

Pros

Many different post to cover. That's it, but I have to write 20 characters.

Cons

As a rover, I noticed double scheduling way too often. Tons of favoritism. Office seems very unorganized considering they have 4 majors.

Ok at best to start.

Pros

The pay is better than most other security companies, but they have frequent pay issues.

Cons

Pay never increases. Company is cheap, high turnover rate, they even ask when they hire you to stay at least 3 months so they make money off you. I'm one of the most senior officers, and I've been here barely 6 months. they charge for everything, management is poor. they are losing the contract on this site, so i will soon be, thankfully, former employee. poor benefits, offered just so they can say they do. no rewards system, promotions dont happen. they frequently violate contract terms to save a buck and assume no responsibility for their actions.
