Pros
They'll let you borrow a dog that poops on command.
Cons
MSA is being sued from coast to coast for unpaid wages by hundreds of current and former dog handlers. That should be a big indicator about this company. Management acts like they're auditioning for Goodfellas 2 . They've lost so many handlers in the last year that they have to threaten to take dogs away if employees won't work crazy amounts of overtime. These threats are not baseless. Retired Cops and Veterans have lost their jobs at MSA because they were unable to work because of: 1. They were on company approved vacation and wouldn't cut it short to work. 2. They had custody of their kids on weekends and couldn't work without MSA giving them advance notice. 3. MSA called an hour before a shift started and expected you to "step up", drop everything, and go to work. Scheduleing is a disaster. Pay discrepancies left and right but it's always someone else's job to fix them. Scheduleing will forget to schedule someone at a post and then when the client calls to complain they'll lie and say you were in a car accident or stuck in traffic. Then they'll call you and tell you to go along with the lie or you could lose your post. Upper management is aware of this scheme and have done nothing to reprimand those responsible. You'll fall in love with your dog and the company knows that. They have no issue reminding you that it's their property and they can take it at anytime for any reason.
