Pay is slightly better, but management is poor

Anonymous employee

Pros

Literally none. Don’t work here. Wait maybe the pay, it’s a little better than most agencies in the area.

Cons

Everything. Poor management. Same lazy, old school managers that ran Rural Metro into the ground. If you want non stop phone calls on your days off asking you to work and have zero work-life balance this is the job for you.

Pros

Pay is good and shift schedule

Cons

Culture is not good. They have their favorites and if you aren't one of them, it's lights out for you. They claim open door policy but the gossip and rumors get spread by leadership for anyone to hear.
