Pros

They will hire almost anyone, no experience required. Plentiful overtime available if desired. You could work at a variety of locations, some of which could lead to other employment opportunities.

Cons

They will hire almost anyone, including but not limited to incompetent guards who did not receive the proper training or guards who do not have good work ethic. You are expected to work grave shifts, holidays, weekends with no additional compensation. Abysmal benefits, PTO accrues slowly and Scheduling department is slow to approve PTO. Pay is based on where you work, not your experience or tenure, most locations only pay minimum wage. High employee turnover rate means you will frequently meet with new guards who are untrained or inexperienced. Many employees are related to or are friends with each other, leading to favoritism and lack of equal consideration for positions or work sites.

Pros

I was employed with the company for about 2 years, and during my time there I really enjoyed it. I worked grave yard shifts and had a 4 days on 3 days off schedule and worked 48 hours a week.

Cons

Communication from upper management. At times the communication could be quite poor

Pros

Easy job can be good if you are right out of High School.

Cons

Your pay will be crap, the office staff is not helpful. The payroll doesn’t know what they are doing. Pay is usually wrong so you will need to follow up constantly. They hire more people than they actually have open positions for. Unless you are a family member for Director of Operations good luck getting a decent position.
