Pros

Absolutely no pros! Weekends off I guess is a pro. The downtown location was a great atmosphere to work in.

Cons

Management has no managerial skills whatsoever. There is no structure, no raises, no room for advancement. This is a horrible company to work for. Their maine focus is on occurrences to get you fired. They use you to work overtime, then take the overtime back from you, by making you report to work later than your scheduled time the next day. If you are not careful, this will be an occurrence too, even after they told you to come late. BEWARE!!! DO NOT work for this company.

Pros

Good training. Not too demanding in the learning curve.

Cons

Not a whole lot of work where I live. Working out of town 1 day a week part-time with a long commute.

Pros

The role provides the opportunity to meet a diverse range of people, oversee multiple sites, and stay active throughout the day. The constant movement and variety help keep the work engaging and dynamic.

Cons

Supervisors are often overwhelmed by the number of accounts they are responsible for managing. They are required to conduct site checks within specific timeframes, regardless of the distance between locations, which can be challenging and time-consuming. Additionally, staffing shortages and heavy workloads can force supervisors to cover posts themselves when no one on the roster is available or willing to take an assignment, preventing them from completing other critical responsibilities. The company appears to follow federal law only to the extent necessary to avoid legal repercussions. As a member of the military reserves, I have observed that legally mandated rest periods following military duty are not always adequately considered by management when scheduling employees. This can create unnecessary fatigue and make it more difficult to balance military obligations with civilian work responsibilities.
