Kerberos International, Inc.

I work the Electronic Warfare side of the company. Kerberos is a Woman Owned Fortune 1000 Fastest growing small business and a TOP 50 Washington IT growing company. One of the reasons I love working here is the Diversity. I can honestly say that this has got to be the most diverse company I have ever seen in my life and i love it. From a management side it is mostly women and from an Operations side its mostly former Special Operations types. I think currently they have about 150+ employees and growing. I don't know anything about the Protective Security side but from the Engineering side, I have worked for the last 5 years serving as the Program Manager for OCONUS Engineering support and Business Development. Most of us on my side of the house has a TS/SCI clearance to work the projects that we need to work and it has been a phenomenal company to work with, the people, the management, and the projects. The pay is well above average for what my contemporaries are making and the projects that we work on is usually pretty awesome.  I spend  a great deal of time travelling the world (some places are great some places are NOT) but zero complaints there. Kerberos is definitely one of those companies though that you get out of it what you put into it. I have had teammates that have gone the extra mile, put in the hours, work the hard jobs at the rough locations, and they are awarded well for their efforts – but unfortunately as in any company we have also had people that has tried to mislead management about their capabilities making empty promises on what they can do and making it where others have had to pick up their workload and fortunately those types are not with us long.

Working at Kerberos International in Temple, TX, has been an exceptional experience. The job itself is rewarding, and the team I work with is truly phenomenal. Each of my coworkers is well-versed in their roles, contributing to an environment of professionalism and expertise.

The atmosphere at Kerberos International is welcoming and pleasant, making it a place where I genuinely enjoy coming to work every day. One of the aspects I appreciate most is the trust and autonomy we are given. I am able to perform my duties without being micromanaged, which instills a sense of independence and responsibility.

Additionally, the company sets high expectations, which motivates us all to excel and achieve our best. Overall, Kerberos International offers a supportive and inspiring workplace that I am proud to be a part of.


You get to work with a lot of great people, typically most are veterans, like minded people. 
Being around the public constantly can get a bit draining but the pay and level of effort does make it worth it. 

What makes it not worth it is the wage theft, the fact that Kerberos International holds the union dues and actually doesn’t give them to the union itself. They also don’t pay us our missed meals which is state law, because they don’t give us actual breaks or lunches in our scheduled shifts. 

Management can be iffy there are a few great supervisors but some pretty average ones, but once you start climbing higher into management and into the office staff it gets worse. 

I have been given so many opportunities to grow in the HR field and I have also had the opportunity to learn and tackle other projects within the company. My title is HR Manager but my knowledge and opportunities are unlimited. I have been mentored by the owner of the company each day and it has created an environment for me to grow professional and personally. I love working at Kerberos....

The job itself is enjoyable and rewarding knowing you’re there to help protect people and help in any situation. The money is good for what you have to do. Most of the contract is on “mandatory overtime” so expect 60 hours a week. Makes for a nice paycheck but M-F you can expect to have no life. With traffic, you’re looking at 14 hour days at the least. When you do reach the weekend you’re playing catch up on sleep and errands.  Can’t ever seem to have enough employees so you’re always overworked. Leadership is fine for the most part.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
At  times the work environment can be great at other times it can be toxic as well as the culture at times can be stagnant working with certain co-workers ( the union is full of stuff with the benefits).

What is the best part of working at the company?
The pay, if it is right and on time...which is a 50-50 gamble each check.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Trying to figure out who the managers are to get issues resolved, after 8 months they still don't have our sick time/pto available hours posted anywhere so one has to guess what they have. Little to no company communication.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Do your job and don't make waves.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Not a thing. Cheap equipment. Not to mention wage theft

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The contents schedule changes.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Work environment is ok. Company culture is toxic

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Easy as long as supervisors let you do your job.

Unfortunately, you will work from the second you wake up, well into the evening.  I loved the work culture and open door policy.  The disappointing part is when they don't actually take your conversations and concerns seriously.

The pay is ok but you don't get any paid leave until after a year.

Honest, Fair, Reliable are just a few words to describe the company. They are by far the best security company I have ever worked for. Open communication with management really makes a difference in the Security field. I couldn't ask for a better employer.
