Amazing company

Pros

I have been with Sunstate Sec urity for a year now and I am very impressed. They are not like any security company I have ever worked for and I have been doing this for over 30 years . They listen to suggestions, they follow through when I tell you they are going to do something, you were treated like a family member and not just a random employee. I actually met the owner of the company Glen Burrell Who was a very easy-going person. I have never worked for a security company that the CEO would come and shake your hand and tell you what a good job you were doing. If you are interested they promote from within which is always the best way to go. I will be with this company until I retire. I will be with this company until I retire
