      Pros

      The work is fairly easy and doesn't consist of much mental strain. Very flexible hours hours; perfect for students, parents, and/or people with multiple jobs. Always overtime opportunities.

      Cons

      Minorities only occupy entry level positions and management solely consists of white males; therefore, it brings about a sense of segregation that is very uncomfortable. Also, communication is easily misconstrued (even though there are guidelines to follow specific channels for communication) and training isn't even distributed. Lastly, many of the employees (including management) participate in a lot of gossip and speaking behind others' backs. It feels as if I'm back in high school.

      Pros

      Some of the people you meet are cool and you make real good connections with the professional guards (not a lot, but i got lucky)

      Cons

      *Management doesn't answer their phones *Management don't want to help you address the issues onsite unless the manager of that site has an issue. *Rude and non responsive office. *Operations managers and client managers are useless. (Their assistants do a better job than they do) *The guards are not the priority to management and the company. Very childish and hostile environment. *A lack of structure, communication and support.
