Security Guard

February 2019 • Marshall, MN

What I liked

What I wish was different

Getting shafted on PTO after they took over the contract and rehired all of us from G4S. I had a baby on the way and they were very unapologetic and didn't even offer any prorated PTO, or even considered that at the time I'd been working at the client site for a year the following July, and had more experience than any of the other guards with that site.

Advice

The security field is trash, company after company has proven to me that all the security companies really care about are filling in uniforms. They do not care about their employees and their only concern is getting contracts and maintaining those contracts, which means working their employees to the bone, 60-70+ work hour weeks if you're short staffed which quickly spirals out of control with employee retention.
