Armed Security Guard - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Bulletproof Securities

Good hours, good variety of work details, comprehensive (and free!!) training

No cons that come to mind

The pay is twice the amount of any other local security agency at 20 hr and there is free training that is at times beneficial for your growth in this industry. Most of the people that work for the company are ex military or PD and are generally a great bunch of guys to work with. The contracts are confidential but no silly uniforms and mostly professional plain clothes. Big boy rules apply on judgement and very little micromanagement by supervisors and leadership. There are some static posts but at a higher tier and respectable level (no fat/old security guard impression)

Because they pay twice as much everything else is nonexistent. No benefits, no paid days off, and the work is sometimes far and few between. You are required to pay for all your own gear and expected to show up for "volunteer" training days UNPAID and pay for ammo which the company sells out of the back of a truck or you wont get calls for work. At the end of a training day you end up paying close to $200 for ammo and gear. There are full time positions but you have to know the top guys and volunteer your unpaid time doing volunteer work or training to be recognized and earn a full time position. High turn around due to lack of career progression in this company.
