Pros

Company that tries hard to balance the needs of customers, investors, and Associates. Better than market bonus plan based on company performance paid QUARTERLY, that is rare and has paid a good bonus for +7 years! Increased employment from 500 in 2007 to +1,000 presently, so growing is good. In that time, has never had mass layoffs, has grown employment and profit, has increased product set through acquisitions, and has the largest VoIP corrections based IT platform in the world - so high tech and software based. Has hundreds of on-line courses and a good tuition reimbursement program - they actually help you and want you to get a degree if you put in the time. If you want to be challenged and learn and have a good chance for advancement - Securus is for you.

Cons

Securus cares and tries to make EVERYTHING better including Associates. You have to work hard - but are rewarded for that. You have pressure to save lives and help law enforcement and corrections officials to solve and prevent crimes. Clearly have job pressure - but can be a rewarding career if you are up to it.
