Pros

*Decent pay, can make some good acquaintances with co-workers. *Job is mostly easy and not too mentally strenuous *Overtime ALWAYS available *Will help with training and assistance if required

Cons

*Long, long hours. *Not guaranteed to have a work life balance (offers a lot of overtime but if you don’t want the OT, you feel passively pressured and a wave of a guilt if you decline it). *Management doesn’t always enforce rules or step in to manage some situations. *Constantly short-staffed to the point that almost always the same guards can’t/won’t do their shift and others who do a lot of OT to cover these guards are just burnt out. *There is certainly a clique circle involving particular guards and the a few of the management

Good afternoon, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. Unfortunately we are SECOM Plc, based in the UK. Your review is for SECOM Australia, in the UK, we do not provide security guards as a service. I hope you are able to pass on your review to SECOM Australia, I am sure they will appreciate your advice to management and take your feedback on board. Kind regards, SECOM Plc.

flexible schedule for working, you can come late or leave early as long as you can finish your job. And it is easy to ask for a payed-holiday if you have reasonable excuse.

Cons
