Pros

Good pay and plenty of overtime. That's just about it for the pros unfortunately. It pays the bills and that's all that matters.

Cons

Incompetent management, hard workers are highly under appreciated, taddling is rewarded weather it is true or not, blatant favoritism, the feeling of racism in some situations, doctored time sheets by superiors to avoid paying overtime and the list could go on.

Pros

Workload is easy. Requires very little thinking. Flexible depending on your life situation

Cons

Management is awful. Pay isn't great. Full time employees cannot make use of their "generous benefits package" no paid time off within the 1st year. Uniform allowance is taken out of your pay at a rate of $20 a check. Same goes for your guard license. Pretty anything you need to perform your job, you pay for it. Pretty dumb considering they NEED YOU to perform the job.
