Pros

SAS, Inc. is a local company that has been in the metro Baltimore area for over 45 years. The company hires on a regular basis, and has an excellent team of supervisors who train and monitor all clients to ensure the guards are performing their duties to the clients' request. The operations manager and HR go the extra mile to help guards to the best of their ability when it comes to scheduling, pay, and other matters.

Cons

Schedules are known to change abruptly due to either a guard calling out or not showing up, or if a post is unexpectedly shut down due to inclement weather. There have been recent issues with clients ending their contracts with the company due to circumstances outside the company's control, which makes it difficult to assign employees as new clients are being sought.

Pros

Most posts are very easy. Only reason to work here is to get a year or two of experience so you can go somewhere else.

Cons

Minimum wage pay. Some posts are supposed to have armed guards but they use little tricks to put you there even if unarmed. The supervisor is a lunatic who lost his job as a police office decades ago after he pulled his gun on his captain. He cries and whines and rants and raves constantly about how "nobody ever forgives you for one minor mistake" and blames the world for his own stupidity. At the same time he brags about how he pulls his gun on people who cut him off in traffic. He is also the most unforgiving, nasty individual imaginable. I guess since nobody will forgive him for the minor mistake of pulling his gun on a superior officer in the police force he won't forgive anyone else either. And still acts like a complete psycho.
