Pros

CES is a good entry-level company in the security industry. They assist you with getting your security license, and they allow you to gain experience.

Cons

They charge you for everything, uniforms, license laminations, ect You can go weeks without getting work because most of their post are events. They have very few commercial sites, therefore that limits you on hours.

Pros

Low oversight/autonomy, loyal to and protective of employees, small company "feels like family," focused on executive security details but maintains regular hours contracts to keep employees on payroll in between contracts.

Cons

Management is fairly disorganized, though not worse than any other similar-level company in the same industry. The low oversight/autonomy granted to their employees does get taken advantage of, on the one hand and, on the other, means they often don't do enough oversight to ensure contract retention.
