Is this your company?

Management does not see you as a human being with a life outside of work. - Security Guard Paladin Security Employee Review

Pros

Paid training, Reimbursements for food and gas, great as a stepping stone company, nothing more, nothing less. Ideally a great job for university students, people with no social life, or people with no families. Go casual, do NOT go full time.

Cons

84 hour work week, NO OVERTIME. 7 on, 7 off. They will still ask you to work, AFTER WORKING 84 HOURS. Of course you can decline but it's kind of ridiculous how management just sees you as a pawn and not as a human being. Trying to ask for time off is absolutely impossible, even if you ask 3 months in advance you will be declined, with no good reason and no room for discussion. If you work here, you are their wage slave. This is fact. Yes, they pay for training but you do have to pay it yourself only then will they reimburse you, which can be challenging for some individuals. Yes, they pay for food and gas but if your travel is under 50km they do NOT reimburse it. Be careful for food as well as they will try to scalp every penny down to the cent.
