Lyons Security Service, Inc.

Lyons Security is sure a step up from the last security company I worked for. This company cares about its employees and takes the time  to listen and resolve any issues that arise. They are committed to excellence and really show that with their thorough training, professional, well dressed guards and superior management skills. This company respects its guards, and has a true trust and faith in them. They work with you and your lifestyle. So the schedule is set up around you and your availability. The salary is better than most and plenty of overtime and extra days & shifts when you request it. The managers will pitch in and help when needed and they never act like your below them. The HR dept is helpful with anything you need and takes the time to assist and explain.  I'm very happy to have found this company. I take pride in my work ethics, and they are quick to praise you, for a job well done. You can move about jobs if you like variety as I do, but also they have more steady posts if you like routine. Can't praise them enough. This family owned company is impressive to both its clients and staff and  a complete joy to work fot. I would recommend applying at this company if you are looking for steady, reliable work, for a company that truly cares.

The job was what I excepted it to be and all of the crew you work with understand how we all have have good communication to be safe. Job was a lot safer when we were allowed to drive onto property and patrol but some people can’t drive and it affected everyone else that worked there. Incentives to those who have no complaints and driving issues should have been given a bonus as it was always came down to if all of the vehicles were operational for us to be efficient. 
Overall I would say that it was a good company to work for.

Job involves patrolling client properties. Some clients require 24/7 service, so a typical work week may involve weekends and/or night-time hours. Most positions require only one security guard, so there is no on-site supervision, although a Field Supervisor can be dispatched to the site if required.

Specific duties are typical for security work. They involve foot or vehicle patrols, checking visitors into buildings, answering inquiries or complaints, and, on occasion, summoning police assistance.

I love my job at Lyons. I never have to ask for my pay and I am appreciated and respected. I feel important. My manager will back me always. If there is an issue...management will handle it privately. quickly and respectfully. 
We have a nice uniform. Paid weekly. We know the schedule ahead of time. I am trusted. No requests denied if possible. 401K plan.

It was the first security company I’ve worked for and  if I ever decided to go back to work for security I’d reapply to work there. I was treated by supervisors, the post commander, leads  and experienced coworkers with the upmost respect. They trained me and continue to guide me even if I made a mistake during my learning phases. 
Teamwork and helping each other out is definitely my greatest and most admirable experience hands down! 

Just the same average joe security like most other companies out there work wise they will most likely put you at a post that isn't that great standing outside with any condition. I do admit the management takes pride in security work and train you properly but from that said they expect to much from you but the pay wont match the expectations. If you really need the job this will get it done but why work harder when you can just work at other company and sit in-door and get paid the same or more.

My current work site is a cool environment for the most part but can get hectic at times. Management within the company is poor at best and treat employees like warm bodies rather than employees. Management never has your back in any situation. Work culture at most sites is ok at best. I will say most sites are easy to work so that's 1 pro I can say. 

While my employment there was rather brief I really don't have many negative experiences here. The support of management was great. Communication was open for the most part and while it was unorganized at times it was manageable because everyone at the supervisory level is on the same page of just doing their best. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
They are a good company to work for but there are issues like any company. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
If certain personnel don’t like you they will make an uncomfortable work environment 


What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It is professional and functional work environment 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Days are routine , once you know a post there are no issues.

Honestly, the company and the management is a great place to work as as far as working with the public on the other hand is the tough part you’re dealing with lots of unhoused individuals and lots of addiction
