Pros

For a very specific type of person, working under Securitas' TD Garden contract provides an incredibly fun, fulfilling work environment. There are some great assignments, should you feed the egos of the right people in the building.

Cons

Unfortunately, I'm not sure where to start. I was hired under the pretense that my position would be part-time, and that I would get to choose which events to work, so long as I worked above a certain percentage of events at TD Garden. However, essentially right as I began with them, they completely changed the policy, requiring a time-off request form to be filed if I could not work security for certain events. This completely flipped the terms of my hiring on its head, and was no different than a bait-and-switch. I was fortunate enough to have decent assignments for a while, but was seemingly retaliated against when I had to begin submitting time off forms to fulfill my other obligations. The final straw wafir me was when I was issued a write-up for calling off of an event I had an unavoidable conflict with, and that I had tried to get off through the conventional time-off sheet. This company tried to squeeze full-time hours out of me when the only reason I took the position in the first place was because of their assurance I would have the flexibility I needed for my other positions. This led to me leaving the company after three months. I haven't looked back.

Pros

Easy job that anyone can do / low-hanging fruit.

Cons

Too much incompetence with co-workers/managers. Dead end job, no room for growth.
