Pros

Is there any? Sure, I could leave a little early to tend to personal business, but, the phone rang at all hours, from both upper management and employees.

Cons

In upper management there is no such thing as work life balance. Further up in management games are played and all they think about is THEIR bonuses. I had a vacation planned before being hired and was told to take my laptop “just in case”. I found myself answering phone calls and solving issues the area controller could have handled (yet wanted me to fix).

Easy job

Pros

They give you a job ASAP and they try to give you many choices on which site you go to depending on what suits you best. Pay can be very good compared to the amount of work you do for some sites.

Cons

There is very little room for advancement which makes it good for a temporary job but a poor decision as a career choice. Some officers don't care while others believe they are cops.

Lies.

Pros

A PERC card & training

Cons

Lies on top of lies... they make promises then try to finesse you by gradually taking things away until everything they promised you is gone as if you won’t notice & you’ll just except it & they wonder why no one stays there... all of this for LESS than minimum wage!!! Yes!!! Don’t ask me how... long story.
