Unethical Practices, Unpaid Wages, and No Work-Life Balance
Pros
Some decent coworkers who try to help each other. Can gain security experience before moving on to a better job.
Cons
Employees forced to stay for 6 months: Officers tough it out for six months just to avoid paying back $600 for training and licensing—then they leave due to terrible working conditions. Unpaid wages: Reports of bounced checks, paper checks that don’t clear, and withheld pay. No sick days or emergency leave: Calling off, even for illness or family emergencies, results in threats of write-ups or termination. Disorganized and toxic management: Last-minute schedule changes, forced overtime, and a lack of leadership support. Low pay for high-risk work: The compensation isn’t worth the stress or dangers of the job. High turnover: The company does nothing to keep officers, leading to a cycle of constant new hires.
