Cons

Really not to much to say in a bad way. Most of the big issues at the post are gone . Hopefully the summer time does not bring back the homeless problem back

Pros

On boarding was smooth except my pay rate was incorrect for the first 2 paychecks. This caused a serious issue with keeping payments on time. FYI, the same managers that y'all inherited from Allied Universal, made the same serious pay rate mistake for 3 paychecks. Anyway, that issue is now resolved. Moving forward I again thank you for your kind acknowledgement on my 3 month anniversary. Kind regards, Jeffrey Breier Armed Officer CHM post in Point Loma

Cons

Cons are the transition from Allied Universal to Inter-Con Security was the lack of professional oversight. Y'all took a nonchalant approach to the transition. Already a big struggle to fill all the positions. This is no different from the Allied days. Perhaps take a look at the local management. Their background and credentials are not Security related. Secretary's do not make competent Security Account Managers. I have 35+ years combined in law enforcement and corporate security management. I recognize qualifications when I see it. I don't see it with local management in San Diego. I will continue to maintain good security services and attempt to help bring up the standards of best practices on site. I can't, however, help make improvements at the local office of management. That's for corporate Inter-Con Security to resolve. Thank you for this forum to allow officers to use as a way to inform HR of the situation. Much appreciated. Kind regards, Jeffrey Breier CMH post in Point Loma
