Overall Pretty Chill

Pros

Depends on what site you get, I got assigned to a site that was overall pretty chill. Watched cameras the majority of the time and had to do two walking tours per shift.

Cons

The only reason I left was because i wanted higher pay and they told me i would have to go armed.

Pros

Flexible enough for students or those looking for part-time or full-time work. Provides experience in professional environments such as data centers. Easy entry point into security work with minimal prior experience required.

Cons

Uniforms are not provided seasonally. You may get one set when you’re hired, but when the weather changes, you’re on your own. Getting time off is extremely difficult. Unless you’ve been there a year and qualify for FMLA, every single day off requires a doctor’s note. Vacation options are very limited. Management does not prioritize employee needs or communication.
