Pros

Training. CPR paid for by company. Uniforms paid for by company. It's a good stepping stone if your starting out with security for the first time. I had a few awesome coworkers. I started out by floating getting to know the sites. Took me months to get to full time. Easy to get into.

Cons

Pay wrong by HR most the time and fight with you even if your right. Management only calls if something is wrong. Health insurance is horrible. Time off they try. Too many call outs by coworkers. Pay sucks. You will have a lot to do but you won't be paid well to do so. From site to site you are trained doesn't mean your trained well for what you ACTUALLY need to know.

Pros

I can't say any Pro's about this company, I was already with another company when they took over a contract a site, Pay and benefits was transferred from my previous employer and through the union. ASP had nothing to do with it.

Cons

No communication about any changes being made. We have to go by day by day bases with this company. Management does not care about anyone but themselves. They cut people's hours from full time to part time after they got the contract without informing them first, this way they would have had the chance to transfer sites with the previous employer. They have messed up on ordering uniforms, HR paper work with pay and union contracts, vacation leave requests, and many other things. Their idea of cutting posts and overtime was cutting people's hours while they increase their pay. There is no room to grow because they hire mostly outsiders for their SOC and fire life and safety teams unless you served in the military. Management doesn't give a damn about you.
