Pros

You work for the biggest security company in the world. Useful when applying to different companies. Direct supervisor is a good manager just overwhelmed. Manages 17 other recruiters in 6 states. His boss only manages 3 managers. Pretty convenient. She has lots of free time to overstep and try to manage for him. Shows lack of trust. Makes him look weak. But he is well rounded and good to work for.

Cons

Pay does not match the industry, location or workload for amount of work in this position of any of the manager positions. Receive $50k where cost of living is much, much higher than this. Regional VP who is really the district manager just with cool title is a tool. Try’s to micro manage everyone. Puts his work on everyone else’s plate. Does not know how to do the things he tasks out. If I don’t hear “Don’t know, Figure It Out….” again from someone who makes 3 times what I make I’ll call that a Win for me, 8/12 in office have quit in last 6 mo’s. He has lot more to do with this than he should.

Pros

Some of the people you meet are cool and you make real good connections with the professional guards (not a lot, but i got lucky)

Cons

*Management doesn't answer their phones *Management don't want to help you address the issues onsite unless the manager of that site has an issue. *Rude and non responsive office. *Operations managers and client managers are useless. (Their assistants do a better job than they do) *The guards are not the priority to management and the company. Very childish and hostile environment. *A lack of structure, communication and support.
