Loved working with coworkers and everyone contributed 110%.  Because of the role I was in it was difficult to get time off. Although I contributed significantly to increased revenue, I kept the same salary for 3 years of the 4 years I stayed there.  Although company would not increase salary, when I left I was asked to provide consulting services with no consulting fee, even though others were paid for consulting.  I answered questions for a couple of months after I left but I just stopped answering calls and text after I found out they were paying a consultant fee to another employee who left at the same time I did but was using my services for free.  My time is money and if you didn't think my contribution was worth any increases while I worked there, I certainly was not going to give my time away for free after I left.

Advantage SCI augments government, academic, and corporate workforces to sustain operations in every type of conceivable environment, whether on the battlefield or in a classroom. We support intelligence missions; arrange security training and physical security access control guards; provide counterintelligence analysis; staff CI Cyber Security positions; sweep rooms for surreptitiously placed “bugs;” and implement Insider Threat and Cyber Security strategies. Our corporate VISION at its foundation is to be the premier provider of intelligence, security, and critical operations' support to the U.S. government, military, law enforcement, corporations, and academia. Our MISSION is to deliver solutions that exceed expectations through partnership with our customers and employees.

I was on a gov site, non-corporate environment. Customer was very good at making us feel like part of their team, and not someone else's employee filling their seats. 

Most customers were military and civilians, so I was trained by the gov leads. Corporate employees were almost a different team than ours at the site. Policies against discussing pay, due to being hired at different rates. 

Wasn't a fan of PTO policies. If gov site has a weather cancellation, we had to use 8 Hours PTO - even though it was a day where work couldn't have been done, like a Holiday or weekend.

Overall good experience, but they told us they lost the contract, so we all had to leave, but then they had openings for the same job title and location so who knows.

Company lacks in communication, integrity, and genuineness. From day one it was a fight for the benefits, the salary, correcting paychecks, on site job issues, and just getting anyone at corporate to respond and solve the many issues. Constant run around!! I don’t believe the president of the company should be the main contact for everything, he was threatening and abrasive in his manners of doing things. The pay doesn’t align with the work. You get paid non supervisory salaries but when you start working the customer thinks you are in a managerial role. It doesn’t help that the president is great friends with the gov COR so you are between a rock and a hard place with your concerns. Leaving the company is just as unorganized as coming onboard. Inexcusable.

I would like to thank Advantage SCI with affording me the oppportunity to strengthen my knowlege in security by selecting me for one of their personel security specialist postions. My time with this company was enjoyable and humbling as I learned and acquired new skill sets that have helped along my path to becoming a security professional. 

My only concern is that when it came to the filing of the paperwork for benefits (this didnt happen to me but my co-workers) their was some mishaps that affected people financially. I understand mistake happen but that would be my only gripe.

What is the best part of working at the company?
That they let me go. Advantage had a very high turn over rate and lack of professionalism. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The supervisor was the most stressful part

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Just wasn't professional enough to me. They need to hire better staff that actually looks out for there people.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
At the job site is was nice thanks to my training which so happens to be a cilivian

Advantage SCI was a great company to work for. During my time there, it was an extremely busy and overwhelming time. That coupled with a rough personal situation made it difficult for me to stay. However, the Executive management team (President, CEO, and the EVP, Program Operations)were great. They truly believed and supported the mission. The President and CEO always worked to do what was best for the employees and the company, not just the company. They were growing before and I'm sure they will continue to grow. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
The best part is the opportunity to move up.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The most stressful can be working with heavy equipment that can hurt you if not careful.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
I believe management truly cares about everyone.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Focusing on completing work orders, maintaining a clean, and safe work environment

I would not recommend my worst enemy to work for Advantage SCI. Working for the client is amazing. The atmosphere is relaxed. The problem is not the client but advantage management. As an employee you'll get at least one email per week threaten you with termination. Don't be surprise if your medical insurance provider change before open enrollment because the company got a deal from a different provider. Promised bonus but never received
