Pros

I met a few good people. They have a handful of good clients.

Cons

Everything else. The pay is bad, the company upper management is the worst I have ever worked for. As a supervisor, you have no saying at your own site. HR is TERRIBLE, they hire a bunch of good for nothing losers. They losers get placed in great accounts, and are lazy, sleeping on the job, don't show, leave whenever I can go on and on. The ops manager's are the worst. All they do is look out for themselves. Do work their, it's just horrible.

Pros

The opportunity to work at Walden is appreciated. It’s nice to have the flexibility to work full time or part time. It’s nice that I can take the train and save on gas and parking. The compensation is also appreciated and also have the ability to have a 401k plan to help in my future.

Cons

Walden should survey employees every year about the specific location they work not just a vague survey, because not every location is running smoothly.

Pros

From the start, I was """"over the moon"""" when I discovered Walden Culture valued our Officers over any client (within reason). Focus on Officer safety and more importantly, MORAL - over the money being paid to Walden; this illustrated to me that Walden is doing our industry correctly! As it should be; Setting the STANDARD! When I first came to walden I had a particular version of how the Security Industry operated. Walden showed me it could be so much better and, in my view, correct with integrity, honor, duty, and respect!

Cons

In my humble opinion, there needs to be a shake up with leadership, on the corporate level. Not being the """"knower of all things"""" of how a huge business should operate; from my stance various (managers/leaders) within the Human Resources, Information Technology, Learning & Development, and Benefits need to be HEAVILY evaluated. From my (lowly) perspective, I have interacted with multiple individuals under each of those respective departments that have expressed disappointment and/or distain with those that head said departments. Corporate is, and has been, getting WAY too """"top"""" heavy. This will only lead to toppling over later on... leading to a restructuring that already should have happened. Walden is expanding (AWESOME); with that: GREAT care needs to be considered within its management/leadership.
