Security Officer Reviews
What is it like working as a Security Officer?
April 2021
Crappy place to work.
Security Officer in Rosemont:
Pros: "Some" managers are OK to work with.
Cons: Most managers don't work well with officers. Work hours are horrid.
March 2021
An Ok place for work.
Security Officer in Salt Lake City:
Pros: Fair pay, decent public transportation, good food from restaurants for lunch.
Cons: Rampant homeless population due to increasing rent/cost of living, illegal drugs, and mental illness. Poor air quality.
March 2021
Security Officer in Tampa:
Pros: I like most that I'm not micromanaged at my site. I can't stand when someone is hovering over you wanting to know why you haven't completed this or that, or telling you how to do your job when you know full well what you're doing.
Cons: Their response to my questions when I need something is *very* frustrating. But I finally have a new manager that already seems better at that than the rest I've had here.
March 2021
Rewarding, yet Frustrating.
Security Officer in Madison:
Pros: I like just about everything about my job.
Cons: Management Decisions, and Management not caring about their dedicated employees. Retention rates in the security department are horrendous.
March 2021
Great easy access to get home and I'm able to reach work on time.
Security Officer in Montego Bay:
Pros: It's fast going pace.
Cons: Too much traffic at times
February 2021
Good hours but lack in management.
Security Officer in Dublin:
Pros: Hours are always plenty and job isn't too risky
Cons: Payment could be better
February 2021
I think it could be better if the communication was better. And be truthful about a pay scale and show your employees.
Security Officer in Detroit:
Pros: The team work that employees show each other.
Cons: Not knowing what the employee with the same amount of years in the company is making. The pay scale still not the same.
