Pros

You get paid...eventually. Benefits work.

Cons

All of their processes are broken. The branch contacts are unresponsive. They send you to trainings that have been cancelled and then don't answer your calls or emails. If you are a regular guard, it probably works out fine. But if you have to travel or submit an expense report or manage payroll, Allied seems to do everything in their power to make things as difficult as possible. It feels as if they have been in business a matter of days and are still figuring out how managed services/HR works. Lastly, if you aren't Facebook, they send you the worst personnel to fill posts.

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.
