Pros

Very high pay compared to other security roles in Central Florida.

Cons

3 month probationary. Might not hire you on unless you have law enforcement military experience or years of armed security work. Also won't receive a post until you bid for one, but seniority matters.

Thank you for this, and for taking the time to share your experience. We are glad the pay reflects the value of the work — our officers earn it. You've also described our hiring and bidding process fairly: we set a high bar because our clients count on it, and seniority-based bidding rewards the people who've invested in us. We always appreciate feedback and thank you for the work you do!
