Pros

Hire anyone they want just to get you in then your just another body.

Cons

Zero communication, low pay rates, poor insurance, horrible management, no one is professional at any branch location and they run the offices any way they want. You can never get through to speak with your operations manager and its always new people they have take over the accounts therefore its impossible for them to even know who are no matter how long you've worked for them. They will give you a post to work then lose the account which makes you responsible on moving work locations leaving you no choice but to work where they replace you. If you miss more than 3 days thats an automatic write up. I quit working for allied universal and now work for a better security company at a much organized friendly work place and environment. I will never again work for allied universal, long beach branch to be exact or any other.

Pros

They have a lot of accounts

Cons

They don't pay you fare wages they pay 50 cents or more above minimum wage. But to top it off on not getting paid that much when you work OT they do not pay you your full amount of hours you and this is exactly why I'm taking them to court now. The management gives you a lot of promises but do not keep it
