Pros

Las Vegas Signal 88 is a great company to work for. Will not let you work by yourself until you feel comfortable in your new post. Great ongoing training. Ongoing training. Increase in money is based on ongoing education. If you do it you get more money. The new management team started little over a year ago. They are great. They have an open door policy. A true one. They stand up for us if needed. I went from part time to almost full time in just a few months. Great starting pay. I do not see myself leaving any time soon. They do watch there employees very close and expect full dedication.

Cons

Still on the small size. However, they are growing fast. Great for apartments, shopping centers and HOA's.

Pros

It's a job; there are no pros other than quitting.

Cons

Low pay due to the ungodly high rate of royalty fees a franchise has to pay 9 and 11% of each contract. The territory debt each franchise owner incurs is crazy! The territory debt is anywhere from $1-6 million to be paid back at aproxemintly 10%. Each franchise owner has to renew their franchise agreement every 3 years. Signal puts franchise owners into serious debt. Franchise owners are forced to enter into contracts with strategic partners at no profit, all the while being told it will help pay off the debt sooner, as if that is a good thing. Because of this model, the guards suffer the most. Franchise owners can't increase pay for the people who show up and do the hard part of the job. No one will move up in the franchise model; someone has to quit for that to happen. DOn't let the "career opportunities" that are preached fool you. They mean nothing and are just there to make you feel like you're achieving something when, in reality, you're not. The training provided is a complete joke and is highly overrated. You will be treated as if you're important, but it's just abuse. Abuse that starts from the very, very top.
