Management is friendly but at times not professional when it comes to scheduling and placing employees at jobs close to were they live. This is not a career where you will make good money. If they can pay you the least amount they will and you'll work full time but no benefits.  Plus if you make it to supervisor they pay you salary but you'll be working on and off the clock and crazy amount of hours for your pay.  Especially when your unreliable employees decide they've had enough of the inconsistent placement of there jobs and you have to cover their shift.  There is always work though and you get paid weekly.  But for the ever growing cost of living in the Chicago area 11-13 hour is going to see you at 350-400 a paycheck. Tactical Training is available but you have to pay out of pocket and has to be done on your own time. Sad part is they will hire almost anyone without a felony. So theres still alot of bad habits out there that dont fall under the felony category so your co-workers can be very unprofessional.

For what its worth, its alright. 

Don't come here expecting high pay, great benifits, or PTO. It's okay work that just about anyone can handle, especially if you are trying to get back on your feet and figure things out. It is a dead end job, since there isn't much of a ladder to move up on, and even the supervisors only make a few extra shekels an hour. And as an unarmed officer, you can expect minimum wage plus 1 or 2 dollars.

Most job sites are fairly simple, you usually dont need to do anything more than show up, use common sense, and pay attention. And because there is nothing to do most the time, I highly suggest you find something productive to occupy that extra time, such as studying or figuring out your next career path.

The company and management are a little disorganized, but if you work with them they will get you scheduled and sort out most issues. You will need a car or reliable transportation to work here, as most the sites are scattered, some in remote areas. 

In my opinion there is a this communication between the office the supervisor and officers they never  Communicate with each other you can tell 1 person 1 thing to relate it and the never give back to the right person. The common response is death security like everything is curious is you have me is part of the job when people is not is no respect of a person opinion feelings or.concerns about the

It seems as though you’re more in trouble for asking when you’ll be relieved from your post when someone is late, rather than the late employee. You have to almost expect to be called on your days off because of unreliable guards not showing up

I liked working at AS it was a good place to start and kinda get your foot in the door. Managers depending on who it was were pretty good very Understanding and others not so much so it was kinda a 50/50. I'd recommend them to start with and possibly even move forward with. wages and benefits are good if you're a higher up.

Unprofessional ,Putting you on a surprise schedule on your day off and not calling, texting or e-mailing to see if your available to work that day,
They expect you to watch your schedule 24/7 and not have a life around that,
Communication between management and there supervisors are not all there, Guards take blame for there actions.

The job is security so there isn’t much to say. Although, when you start, you have to take on classes for training. Other than that you are interviewed and put on the field. Pay is meh for some locations, expect to be moved around a bit from 1 work site to the next. 

I liked the people I worked with but I found this job to be unsatisfying for my need to help people. Management was very open to my needs, but I felt that it was distracting me from what I really wanted to do. The hardest part of the job was dodging skunks and racoons as I walked around the multiple buildings.

You are a drone and you only worth the hours you are willing to work. If you mess up you will be fired on the spot. They not offer much support.No paid vacation or sick days.

Will work the f out of you. They have no concern for personal life. They will expect you to work 24 hours straight if no relief shows. Horrible communication from management to supervision regarding important info . highly trained guys that take security professional.
