Happy camper - Secuirty Officer Allied Universal Employee Review

Once you've networked with the right people it becomes all success and excellence. Through my years of experience with Allied Universal, I was fortunate enough to work with the right accommodations and site placements. I even had a chance to demonstrate supervisor status that I never did before in private security. I think Allied Universal gives chances to anyone eager enough to try gainful employment with opportunities to prove it. One quality pro factor that Allied Universal offers is through your journey of work placements at client sites, one client site will eventually become your primary site by choice to stay permanently as a career.

Career growth is slow because Allied Universal is humongous as both a company and private corporation. Opportunities don't exist often after getting your Guard Card but if you take the opportunities as an opportunistic, you'll do fine and reach the next stages in bottom management.

Pros: Reliable weekly pay and decent rates. Uniforms are provided by the company, and the majority of coworkers and building staff were nice and trouble-free.

Management & Scheduling: Very poor. Having a drivers license means they will overextend you and send you everywhere. Work Environment: Some assignments are less than ideal. There is a lack of professionalism at certain posts (inappropriate boundaries/views). Safety/Culture for Women: It can be tough to be taken seriously. Because you are required to stay at your post, you can feel trapped when dealing with overly forward or unprofessional individuals.
