Pros

its a great oppurtunity to excel in a security field and or police if you chose that path.

Cons

the lack of uniformity. There is No AMERICAN FLAG on the uniform. i spoke to co workers and they said if someone is from a different country it might offend them thats why we dont wear the American Flag. if they are from a different country working inside the United States of America and they dont like our flag then why work in this country. This is America. and Im proud to be here. i would like to wear a flag on my uniform.

Pros

The role provides subsistence-level wages, offering little financial security.

Cons

Management arbitrarily downgraded my position from full-time to part-time, yet still demanded overtime. I grew overwhelmed and complained that overtime was impeding my health. After that I was told then don't do overtime like it wouldn't negatively affect me. After moving me from a solid post to a flex post, they expected me to show up with only an hour's notice. They then used an "available quota" as an excuse to terminate me after creating a schedule that made it impossible to succeed.The company's adaptive workflow seamlessly absorbs last-minute modifications with zero friction. Advice to Management: Treat your employees' time with respect instead of setting them up to fail with unrealistic scheduling and quotas. I advise management to invest more heavily in employee development and modernizing our core tools. Providing clearer pathways for advancement and better operational resources would significantly boost morale and retention.
