Pros

Co-workers are great hard working people, who are the best in the business at dealing with the worst situations! Company provides free training and uniforms (but so does MacDonalds and Walmart) IF you stay for at least 6 months full time. Otherwise you have to pay them back several hundreds of dollars.

Cons

If you like dealing with daily workplace violence in a psychiatric ward or a busy ER, in an environment where you are exposed to disease and illness like HIV and Hepatitis for little more than minimum wage, then being a Paladin Healthcare Security Officer is the job for you! Otherwise get a job as a Walmart greeter. The housekeeping staff in the hospital get paid more to mop the floor than Security does to risk their health and safety on a daily basis. Years ago, in-house security was paid over $20 per hour. Now the job goes to the lowest bidder(Paladin) for $11-13 per hour. Only site supervisors get paid a couple bucks more than that.

Pros

Decent pay, hours, and benefits for full time employees

Cons

They hold onto crappy employees, they'll lie straight to your face and manipulate you and the clients they have contracts with, communication is subpar.
