Iron Wall Security

Reached out to Ironwall during the middle of the pandemic back in 2020 and was able to get an interview pretty quick. Got the interview, On boarding, Site check. After completing those steps I was told 48 hours later that the site was "Filled" and they wanted to keep me on their "Call back list" (Pretty unprofessional to begin with here) After which that same day I was called back and they gave me a site in Eastlake this site remained my primary site for over 2 and a half years! The site started out great with all the Equipment functional and working (Golf Cart, Clipboard, Citation slips ect) Slowly throughout the year equipment started to fail and I had requested numerous times to the Supervisors to look into the matter. We would sometimes go Months without a functional Golf Cart which really affected getting around the site. I think overall just better management for the Equipment and Communication is needed.


I started as a motorcycle patrol officer and after a few months I was promoted to Patrol Supervisor. I really enjoyed my time there and working with management was great. You really need to be reliable, resourceful, flexible and responsible to succeed, just like with any job. The workplace culture is tight nit and you shouldn't have a problem if you naturally do the right thing when no one is looking. Staffing can be short, it's security work after all, so it can get annoying at times, but that's an issue you run into with any security company. My only real gripe was pay, though it was competitive/in line with other security companies. I really loved working here and wouldn't have left if I hadn't gotten a huge opportunity in a different career field. Give them a chance, do your best, and you wont be disappointed. 

I worked for what was formerly know as Bravo Three Security which was bought out by Iron Wall Security. It was clear early on that Iron wall had favorites within their company that took over many Bravo Three employees positions regardless of their seniority and experience within the field. This was found throughout all of the employees that all prior seniority meant nothing and we’re all looked as new hires. Already existent management employees were demoted without any processes to evaluate their abilities and experience. They stated and preferred to “keep the two entities separate” however this causes a huge mess on the management side of things because everything got crossed over anyways. Many employees have quit due to this and the remaining were asked to do many extra hours and shifts just to find out that the overtime that should have been paid to them was unaccounted for.

Iron Wall Security brands itself as a “premium” security company, but there’s nothing premium about it.

80% of new hires are either fired or quit within 30 days. That should tell you everything you need to know.

There are a couple of genuinely good people on the management team, but unfortunately they get taken advantage of by being severely under paid and overworked. Annual pay increases do not keep up with inflation except for a chose couple of employees.

There are much better options for employment at minimum wage. If you desire employment in the security sector, go to one with real promotional and training opportunities.

Benefits are minimal here, no paid time off until you’ve been employed for 1 year. Using your personal cell phone will be a requirement and the phone reimbursement is laughable at best. 







What is the best part of working at the company?
Iron wall doesn’t have room for growth and advancement! Theres no career here ! They underpaid their guards . This is a starter job if you just started security 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The communication. The disorganization 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The post i work in has its ups and downs some of the people can be really nice and helpful but someone of the people are rude and entitled 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
It could be alot of running around assisting and helping people but for the most part its a dead area what nothing much going on

If you like chill management.
 Good good sites and good locations. A positive family vibe..This is it.. I've been in this industry for over twenty six yeand i've never got the training and the patience that this company has given me me.. 
This is also the vibe of upper management from the owner.All the way down to your support officer. This job actually takes the time to coach and evaluate That gives every employee a chance to be successful.

Absolutely a fly by night low company. False advertisement of work and compensation. Management maliciously attacks anyone who brings the flaws to light even if it causes a danger to the employee. Vehicles have no tags, no proof of purchase, no registration and no proof of insurance was nice and any legal ramifications to the employee driving the company cars will NOT be reimbursed and you will be solely responsible.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The owner and the manager are amazing people and I loved having them as bosses. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Nothing stressful about working at the company it’s just stressful to have to work all our adult life in general. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Great professional relaxed and friendly 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Work it’s like work work work !

I had never worked in security before, and Iron Wall gave me the chance to prove myself.

You learn quickly on the job.  Security is pretty boring, but that's the nature of the job.  If you prefer boredom over stress this is the place to go.

I ended up leaving after a few months due to another offer, but the President personally thanked me for my work when I picked up my last check and returned my uniform.  

This is a bad company. Starts with management. They show favoritism among their employees, the company also favors a military background over management skills or industry experience. If you have minimal or no security experience but have served in the military you will be hired into a management position regardless. If your popular among manager’s you will be favored & treated better. Experience does not matter to them. Save yourself time keep looking
