Terrible management

Pros

Lots of overtime and you barely do anything. I literally used to bring my xbox into work and play online my entire shift, or hit the gym located in one of my locations.

Cons

I was hired as a Field manager and they threw me into a supervisor position. I was told on numerous occasions that I was doing great and that they were going to put me into a better job, two and a half years later I'm still doing the same thing. DO NOT WORK FOR THE U.S. SECURITAS

Pros

Its a job if you need one.

Cons

Management from Fresno don't return calls. Supervisor onsite not knowledgeable. Managers don't seem to care about professionalism. Worker at job site has holes in his pockets. Wears tennis shoes that are torn. Guards have visitors at night, yet the wrong guards get in trouble for it. If you want 40 hours, go somewhere else.

Pros

Come to work and do what is expected of you and you will do fine. If you are looking for a job that doesn't expect anything from you this is not the place to be. Show up on time and ready for work, I've never had a problem for the most part with management or staff.

Cons

This area tends to promote from (its who you know not what you know". The company tends to take to long to post open jobs. management does not share much company history or the company structure with officers. I was at Securitas 6 months before I knew the chain of command & who are the bosses. I've worked here a few years & still don't know the company structure, operating areas or the leadership team. We don't even get the company news letter. We have asked for it. As a officer we have SEIU only thing I can say at best its a poor union. Our area doesn't a union rep and the union or company doesn't care for at least 3 years.
