Pros

They offer a vehicle allowance if you work 40 hrs a week. If not it is prorated. Full-time employees benefit from a 4% match on retirement contributions. Insurance is available for about 180 a month I believe for a single person. I have been fortunate to have a fantastic manager who answers all of my questions and is always professional. There are opportunities to advance if you stand-in good regard.

Cons

My biggest cons are the penny pinching, the 4/6 hr days. The driving at state minimum wage. Working a month with a day off or two and hoping to get 30 hrs a week. The additional SIU work on top of surveillance. The fact that individuals are hired that have no business conducting any type of professional business. You are not guaranteed a raise. Your starting pay will be 21 to 23 an hour. And the maximum raise you can receive is 5 percent if you're lucky. The "scorecard" is completely wrong. They do a blended rate for overtime. Legal probably ethical NO. You will never be able to understand your paycheck.

In the investigator industry, the volume and type of work can vary due to factors outside of our control, such as client needs, case locations, and seasonal demand. While we cannot eliminate these fluctuations, we are committed to doing everything we can to keep our investigators working consistently. This includes securing new clients, maintaining strong relationships with existing clients, and delivering high-quality results that generate additional opportunities. Our goal is to minimize downtime and create as much stability as possible in an inherently variable industry. We genuinely value constructive feedback, as it helps us grow and improve. We love hearing that the culture we have created has been helpful and supportive.

Pros

The flexibility to work from home and have some say over your work hours is something that has kept me at the company. This is the benefit that I use to justify the cons.

Cons

The pay structure is way below averages for this line of work. Merit increases are considered annually, but have fallen far behind inflation thus far. PTO is less than what I've experienced in other similar positions. Ongoing training is sparse and seems to create time-intensive problems that would be more efficiently handled with regular training updates. The company makes no contributions to health insurance premiums, which for people like me, means that half my paycheck is gone before I see it just to cover premiums for myself and my son.
