      Pros

      Great company to work for if you are entry level, plenty of low level opening and advancement opportunities if you have your head on right.

      Cons

      Not so many mid level opportunities.

      Pros

      Pay for workload is decent. Literally, the contract agreement is to provide uniformed security presence, no "hands on" work is essentially ever required

      Cons

      Management will lie, backpedal, deceive, and be deviant at every level at any opportunity. Guards are just names on a schedule roster and expendable if you don't disown any family or personal life to work at anytime needed, with little or no notice; even if there is a created and publically displayed "set work schedule". Regardless of what image may be portrayed, there is no structure, organization, clear and open communication. It is literally a circus which expects you to be the dancing monkey.

      Good if you want lots of hours, but don't expect to progress

      Pros

      The particular contract I work on is well paid. Job security as there are never enough officers to cover all the shifts. Little chance of be reprimanded for sickness etc.

      Cons

      Poor Management, Poor Communication, Poor Uniform Quality & Design, Securitas will hire anyone as long as they can find their way to the interview and then to site so in turn there are a lot of incompetent and lazy Security Officers out there, Poor Pay (Depending on the Contract), Zero chance of promotion unless you know the right people,
