Npb-Companies

My assignments were very boring. Typical shifts were long with little to do. Owner repeatedly said he wanted you to give 110% but then turned around and said "no raises".  He made us drive in (22 miles)at  -28F, when the rest of the city was shut down, just to prove how tough his employees were.
 I had to stand out in the frigid cold on my assignment but the owner wouldn't provide or let you wear the gear you needed to stay warm. The company gave us a thin fall jacket that the owner insisted was good enough for single digit temp operations.
The job had no advancement or upward mobility.  The vast majority of employees were dirty and smelly. The owner told everyone at the company meeting that they needed to remember to wash their clothes, shower and wear deodorant. 
I was used to working in a professional environment. My assignment was in a professional building but the company was not.
My first supervisor was good but his replacement  was surly and treated you like unskilled labor that could easily be replaced.

NPB is an awesome company to work for the hiring process was very quick and easy. I was able to start the following Monday and I must say when I arrived for my first day at my post the training was great and pretty easy to learn. The cool part is there's so many opportunities for extra hours here. The pay and the hours are pretty decent. Before I came over to NPB I had a difficult time trying to get by at other security companies across Kansas City. I love that NPB is a nice small family owned company that cares about their people and actually treats them like family unlike the other companies I worked at before coming here. If you're looking for a great unarmed uniformed security or event staff job come check out NPB. 

It is an event staff and security job. It deals with everything from customer service to national security. A typical day is getting to work being briefed on what the days show and assignments are. I have a great working relationship with my management staff as well with my fellow co workers. The hardest part of my job as that no two shows are the same, while there my be a lot of similarities they are all unique and should be treated as such. The most enjoyable part is interacting with the people. It my job to ensure they are having a great time in a safe environment.

Low pay and few benefits. No say on your work assignments. Boring jobs. My first manager was great to work for but he was replaced with a lazy one. Company owner denied any raises but wanted everyone to give 110%.  Owner called a company meeting during a winter weather emergency just to show how "tough" his people were. Commute became too expensive so I had to leave. I gave two weeks notice and they fired me the next week.

Company is very family orientated where everyone feels like they are part of a work family and not just an employee. The owners come out and visit the staff and know each of us by name. Great place to work.    

What is the best part of working at the company?
I enjoy working for the owners because they are personable and fair.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The most stressful part is when I have to remove someone from one of our commercial accounts.  It is a challenge because some of the encounters are aggressive!

This company goes above and beyond to make you feel like part of the family, great management and staff. They treat you like family from day one.  they do a lot of training to make sure everyone know thier roll.

Wouldn't want to work for another concert security firm. Get to meet new people and see how bands are off the stages. Can be difficult if working out in the heat for long periods but always worth it.

I assist customers to their assigned areas as well as verifying admission to events. Management and other co-workers are very accessible and reliable whenever assistance is needed.

The owners are team players. Work is is work but does offer impressionable experiences that provide unique experiences. The hardest part of the job is to stay warm in cool conditions
