Pros
* Provides hands-on experience in the private security industry. * Opportunity to work a variety of site types including retail, residential, patrol, hospitality, and commercial accounts. * Employees who are self-motivated and who don’t get discouraged easily can gain broad exposure quickly. * Some supervisors are supportive and do their best with available resources. * challenging environment for someone new to security who wants immediate field experience.
Cons
* Management structure can feel disorganized and reactive rather than proactive, and can be aggressive at times. * Scheduling communication is inconsistent at times, creating confusion or last-minute changes. * Training quality depends heavily on who you report to; no strong standardized development program. * Policies may be enforced inconsistently depending on the situation or manager involved. * Advancement opportunities appear informal rather than clearly structured. * Heavy reliance on a few strong employees to keep operations running smoothly.

Pros
A lot of OT and room to make money
Cons
Owner is low key racist, just want people to work like slaves, and stealing money from employees. They said it is a Family Oriented Company, but sadly it was just favoritism.
