Allied Barton Security Services Inc. Reviews
What is it like working at Allied Barton Security Services Inc.?
Somewhat average pay, communication with upper management difficult.
Security Supervisor in Jupiter:
Pros: I have to say that I probably have one of the easiest sites at my company, very laid back environment with average-ish pay. (The best you can probably get for a security guard in a "right to work" state.)
Cons: Unfortunately, even now in a management position myself, it can be very frustrating and difficult to get answers from high up's. Alot of times questions may just go entirely unanswered. For example, I was due a months worth of back-pay that took them over half a year to finally START processing and get back to me, which in technically illegal (google withheld wages). Only after I made mention of filing a complaint with the DoL did i get an answer/process started. It felt like often little things that could be easily done to benefit both the average officer, that would then in turn benefit the client, would not be done or would be ignored. Makes things really difficult on the site captains that have to then bear the weight of whatever issues arise on their shoulders for less pay than their superiors.
Allied universal.
Security Officer in Mount Pleasant:
Pros: easy going job
Cons: Lack of opportunity presented, even though Ifeel like i have given my best each day.
Fairly good company.
Security Officer:
Pros: Job security. Decent benefits. Great co-workers.
Cons: I'm in a contract right now where I'm not able to move up.
Confusing.
Security Officer Armed:
Pros: I work for the Boeing Corp. It is a very pleasent place to work over all.
Cons: I was promised a raise after the year and I didn't get it. If people are not getting fired they are quitting. Overtime because of this is averaging 16 to 25 hrs a week. Company is having hard time finding officer with Secret clearance. Giving new candidates $500.00 signing bonus for a active clearance but won't give us the raises we were promised.
Wonderful company to work for.
Security Officer:
Pros: Great management, plenty of overtime available, good uniforms, quality co-workers, exclusive/selective hiring allows for a higher-quality of security officers being hired which means most people show up on time and know what they are doing, they have company vehicles, decent benefits, health insurance packages available, weekly pay, intelligent website and pay monitoring software, and excellent training programs that allow you to walk into work feeling confident about your ability to complete your assigned tasks.
Cons: Sometimes it can be boring, I don't feel challenged most of the time, and it's not my dream job.
Absolute idiots!
Security Officer:
Pros: You have a horrible job that may or may not pay at least most of your bills but you will never have any more.
Cons: My entire chain of command are absolutely moronic! They have cost the company money, they lie every chance they get, they do not even do their job, and then they blame you for their screw ups. You will hate your life after working for them for even 3 months.
They have made threats of termination even though my job performance is top notch. I called in sick following the protocol and got written up even though it was my first time calling in over a year of working for them. I constantly pick up after my supervisor and he takes all the credit.
To put it bluntly: If anybody else at Allied Barton got hurt or worse I wouldn't even acknowledge it. They are the scum of the Earth!
Security Officer:
Pros: The people that we service are polite especially at night. Its peaceful.
Cons: The employees during the day are just in a rush it seems. Like dont pay no mind to the low level security guard. Like they are better because they are doing something that actually matters for energy and we are just here looking pretty in a metal badge.
