Pros

Decent compensation for the industry. Some real thought leaders. And a reasonable approach to benefits. Casual office environment. Good branch level operators.

Cons

Absolutely run by the accountants. Regardless of contribution, the CEO and Executive leadership would cut your throat if it dropped a nickel to the bottom line. Focused only on the next quarter with no real long term vision. They are one of the most profitable companies in their sector now, but have largely done it by slashing all support and crushing those who remain. Very short sighted leadership.

Pros

-get paid about 11.70 starting out -If you want long hours, you got it -People you work with are awesome, mostly hispanic and black people so you may feel a little left out, but they are amazing, fun, and GREAT people to talk to, shame to never see them again -When talking to management, they are nice, and do take what you say into consideration -they pay for your guard card certification classes -401K

Cons

Oh here we go..... -The armored trucks are crap, most of them have very bad AC -to get a truck/van fixed, it takes forever and the problem will still exist -The armored vans have HORRIBLE side mirrors. Most of the time you are going to have to slowly and blindly move over into other lanes of traffic -the steering is almost always off on the vehicles, and no one will change it -get ready to have people blaring and honking their horns at you ALL DAY if youre in the van -They don't pay you for your gear or give you and gear to wear -VERY long hours, and if you lived a while away like I did, the extra money won't mean a thing -If you ever try to get a hold of dispatch, or management from the phone line, get ready to never talk to anyone, so if you're ever under fire, no need calling your management -Jobs: Either be stuck up font, driving all day tired as hell and forcing yourself to stay awake, or in the back, crammed and in a little seat, feeling every single bump in the road, intensified -My last day of working, I worked 15 hours straight, and they didn't tell me that I was going to be taking another shift after mine was done
