Suggestions to MSA...

Explosive detection canine handler

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The four legged partner and people you work for at the sites. plenty locations to work from

Cons

long hours, problematic scheduling, no chance for promotion, no compensation for tolls or gas to other locations within NYC. The last minute "hey you" details need to stop. Working at MSA eliminates your social life completely. If you decline work you get blackballed, frowned upon and cutting of hours start happening. I averaged 100+ hours a week when I worked at MSA and that was exhausting as it is. Getting calls all hours of the night because someone didn't make it and I would take it since I was reliable was my biggest mistake. Supervisors wouldnt even listen to their handlers and would scold them in public just to humiliate them. Supervisor/Handler relationship needs alot of work.
