Pros

Wages are ok. Overtime usually available. They tend to leave you alone.

Cons

HR is terrible, for many reasons. Messes up your paycheck constantly.

Pros

AFA has many things to offer. They are a large company geographically yet they still treat you like family. If you have family issues they understand your family comes first. AFA has been in business since 1873. That’s 148 years. Who could ask for better job history? Alarm techs can advance as far as they want to go. I’ve never been given a task that I couldn’t handle. They do offer training in some areas but if you have questions you just simply need ask. The pay is very competitive and the job security is a plus. Even through the pandemic we were never without work. The benefits are good here but a little pricy, yet, what health insurance plan isn’t. The other workers are great to work with. Everyone pulls their own weight. Help is always a phone call away. AFA is a great company, they hired me with very little experience and I have advanced to the point of doing jobs on my own. It’s a great place to work.

Cons

Sometimes you have to drive a few hours to the job which means leaving early in the morning and getting home late at night to possibly donit again the next day. You are paid for your drive time as a technician though.

Pros

Great benefits. Competitive pay. Diverse. Good company moral. They want you to succeed. You learn from the best people who have been here for decades. The owners are very friendly and social. During Covid19, they thought of the health and safety of their employees as well as during snow storms. Immediately they shifted workers to work from home. They implemented a safe environment for those that needed to go to the office, ex: temperature checks, arrows on floor, masks, sanitizer...

Cons

I cant think of anything negative.
