They have a kitchen with snacks and drinks, and the office space is nice.

Decent but not great

Pros

good flexibility, managers are nice and understanding when you can actually get in touch with them

Cons

pay is OK, fairly low especially for the amount of time you actually have to be on duty/on your feet, and very low for a position with handcuffs where you apprehend shoplifters. No camera access which makes the job harder, NO vacation time, they say they offer PTO but it’s just state mandated sick time. Management is very unresponsive at times and a little abrasive when they do communicate. You will be working with security guards who are making $6/hr more than you to do NOTHING while you are expected to apprehend shoplifters by yourself. Good starting point for someone with no experience. You will be working by yourself with nobody to talk to and on your feet while security guards who get paid more sit and chat with each other all day.
