Pros

Close to home. You can come to work and sleep, watch movies on your phone, do absolutely NOTHING the entire time you are there and management does not care. But don't get caught actually doing your job; they may move you to another post and completely change your schedule.

Cons

Living paycheck to paycheck (barely) because they don't pay a livable wage. Management lets certain people do what they want to prevent people from complaining about the management. Adults acting like preschoolers because they did not get their way or they got in trouble. Extremely frustrating when you are an employee who comes to work and does their job and anything asked of you and you do it without problems, but you get moved because you complained that someone doesn't do their job. I only started with the company because I needed the money. Its not much money but I need it. I really wish I would have never accepted employment.

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.
