Pros

If you are able to travel this is the job for you. The positive reviews are staged by management asking employees to post the "PRO" reviews.

Cons

Since the merger the 2 companies have had approximately 30 percent of their employees leave. New employees that they have hired have left after a few short months. Very little advancement with this company, they promote who they want. They expect a lot of travel time so you will not be home with your significant other or children. The company is in a rush to get reviews/raises done before the beginning of the new year....most pay raises are being rejected by upper management. Most employees in this company have had their manager currently for 2 months and those 2 months is what they are using for the reviews. How about the rest of the year and the other 2-3 managers before that. Managers or upper management will call at late hours because they want to you to handle an investigation in the next few day. The office people work around 8a.m. to 5p.m., field investigators are up extremely early and if they make it home to have family time they call you at all hours for case. They have don't care about field investigators.

Pros

Very little to consider of a pro with this Company. Be aware!

Cons

Little pay for expectations. Complex report system that you will not get properly trained and will have no assistance once you hit the field. If you have read any positive reviews in between all the negative postings those are coming from the company to try to stay afloat of a sinking ship. If your a client looking to have Convent Bridge to work a case, look else where. Inv. are not trained and could give a crap less about your case due to the low pay and lack of training they receive. Hire a local private Inv. for better results AND A CHEAPER CONTRACT.

Pros

They pay on time and I worked with some good field people, most of whom are gone now. There is really nothing positive to say since the merger.

Cons

Now that I found a much better job I can't believe I put up with this place as long as I did. They try to squeeze every penny out of the investigators by having them do everyone else's job. You can expect to have to do alive and well checks (not previously in the job description for surveillance investigators and shouldn't be part of their jobs) and get in only 15 minutes of work some days. Completely chaotic system of having 10 or 12 different people giving you assignments all over the place. Completely outdated and impossible online reporting system that will take you hours and hours to figure out. You don't get paid for that time, of course. You have to do your own pre-lims which you don't get paid for. Investigators are expected to stay in contact with the clients while in the field – absolutely ridiculous. You end up wasting so much time getting their stupid precious exquisite time shots and then updating three or four people during the day there's really no time to do the job. But no one cares about doing a good job anymore anyway. And after all that you get a very small paycheck for your trouble. Beyond a joke. This is the last place you want to apply if this is the kind of work you're looking for.
