BTI Security

What is the best part of working at the company?
Better uniform quality,  finally got a raise after a year after being denied by corporate and appealing with the union

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Being unable to work thanks to BTI not submitting suitability folders for myself and dozens of other officers causing then to work elsewhere or be forced to use their sick leave and vacation time such as myself.  I have been out of work since March 25th.  Finally recived my suitability documents to file mid APRIL. I am still not back on site.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very clicky, most employees are immigrants african or carribean  decent, very unprofessional  and immature demeanor ls regarding polices, and respect to certain officers to officers and supervision to officers etc.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Expecting to holdover, unless I come in early, do more checking than needed because my parter in the building does not check floors or doors and exterior doors checks

BTI Security is a young security company but unfortunately is unable to hold on to individuals in leadership positions. During my short time with the company I have seen good people leave the company because of the decisions of executive management. This company has a lot of potential and some very good contract sites and good officers to man them but lack stability in leadership.

The Company is satisfied with providing the bare minimum.  The bare minimum for pay and benefits.  The Company doesn't even offer Direct Deposit.

Managers are not knowledgeable to handle conflict resolution.  Often times, the Managers are the reason.  The employees voice is never heard and the Site Managers are never seen as doing anything wrong.  Favortism for some is also the norm.     

Upper Management will always try to find the easy way out instead of taking responsibility and making it better for the employees.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Great company to work for they're fair very accountable for mistakes made in management...new VP seems to working on correcting officer problems when brought to his attention 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
In my case or PM is stubborn and never wants to admit when he's wrong 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
I'm a supervisor and I have a great team - one individual that prevents the team from being manageable

You have to be a people’s person and  you have to have patience when you deal with peopl everyone does not have a good day and sometimes people have attitudes and they will take it out on you but you still have to remain focus and humble and you can let the person know that everything will be ok sometimes talking to people can help there day go good because you never know what the next person is going through

BTI does a decent job of seeming professional and concerned for their employees. The truth however, is a great disappointment. They deal mostly in federal contracts and in my time with them it has become apprent that their goal is to make a quick buck with little concern for the longevity of their contracts. High turn-over, poor or no resources, and a general feeling of condescension from corporate is what employees have to look forward to.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Best part is literally the pay only.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Lack of accountability, lacks good morale, some take advantage of their position. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Can be disrespectful,  seems to not care about employee complaints. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
As if certain Supervisors are looking for any error to reprimand.

Management is terrible if you can find them. The way people come late for there shift is ridiculous. When it’s time to get off you better hope you have a relief supervisors like to wait until last minute to tell you relief called out.  PM can never answers question if you have them it’s a joke. People are afraid to speak up because they can be fired. 

Worst security company of all time. Realizing that I’ve been working with this company over a year, I realized my life never progressed. Pitiful company to ever work for. The managers and supervisors in this company are liars. They don’t pay overtime, no holiday pay, and no increase in employe raises. If you want to progress or find a better opportunity, work for Allied, Garda, or any other security company that actually cares about you.

(Anonymous employee) 

Overseen  safety and theft prevention or any infractions of the rules
One of the most useful tools I learned was how to implement bomb threat evacuation procedures and evacution drills
I was self supervised at all times
The hardest part of the job was safety of all empoyees and customers when it was a boomb threat
Most enjoyable part of the job was customer service
