Great people and great benefits
Team Leader/ Data Coordinator (Former Employee), Calgary, AB – February 20, 2013
Pros: great benefits, awesome people to work for.
Cons: job has increased in work duties providing no increase in pay.
I provide support for staff and technicians as well as customer service.
I sort mail/emails for updating accounts.
Provide training to new exciting employees.
Provide support for technicians for the installations of alarms.
The best part of the day is providing support to customers/technicians and employees, it gives me great satisfaction.
The hardest – more... part of the day is providing technical support and the systems are faulting and the technician has to go back to the customers house to install a new system. – less

fair work place
Security Guard (Current Employee), torrance, ca – November 13, 2012
Pros: being outside
Cons: job too far with unfair pay rates & lots of unfair rules regarding employees
days are fair but the distance is on your mind throughout the day.
you learn that a lot of cool people can be very rude but for the most part you meet lots of cool people

very top heavy
Sales Consultant (Former Employee), Winnipeg, MB – November 12, 2012
Pros: great parking spot for hockey games!
Cons: brutal management
too many chiefs and not enough indians! More focused on personal gain rather then team spirit and get it done attitude! Motto is "COVER YOUR BUTT! They would rather lose an account then service it properly.

Model: Get The Contract Signed, NOW!!!
Small Business Sales (Former Employee), Spokane, WA – May 9, 2013
Pros: good commission, benefits, 401k
Cons: customers come last! get the contract, sorry "agreement" signed now!
Typical Day: 8:00-10:00 Making pestering phone sales calls for two hours (highly ineffective in terms of garnering actual sales, it's more about free phone advertising for ADT than anything else).
10:00-5:00 Pounding the pavement, calling on businesses that have seen ADT reps before, multiple times. If you're smart you'd be ahead of their game and go – more... after new businesses of your local, public information new business listings. Also, occassionally, you may get a lead from corporate (someone calling in to get a rep to their home or business for a quote, most of the time). Problem is, you are NOT allowed to call or confirm the appointment, even if it's 200 miles away, you have to make the trip! Needless to say, you may get home at 10:00pm after driving 450 miles with no sale to show for it. 200 plus combined mile sales calls will happen about five days a month, about 25% of your time. (no reimbursement for gas). A hiring mill with tons and tons of turnover. – less

An okay job but not a career company to work for.
Customer Service Group/ Technical Support (Current Employee), Jacksonville, FL – May 5, 2013
Pros: you have job security
Cons: breaks, management, scheduling, treatment of customers
This company cares more about profit than anything else. I have worked for this company for 3 years in some areas I see improvement but in other more important areas its years of no change or progress. If you need a job that pays okay until you can do better this is the place.

Busy, Stable
Customer Service (Former Employee), Irving, TX – May 2, 2013
It is a good place to work, the only situation is having to wait on another team member if they are late, you have to stay until they cover your shift. As an Assistant Manager you are required to do all duties, but the Manager gets the larger bonus, but if the Manager has no employees they will have to work the whole store

WOW!
Residential Resale Representative (Former Employee), Greenville, SC – April 26, 2013
Had a customer expose themselves to me when I was in their home and the company was more concerned about if the customer was going to get security then my well being. Enough said that sums up how you will be treated at ADT.

too stressful. no management support or appreciation
Residential Resource Specialist (Current Employee), West Henrietta, NY – April 24, 2013
Pros: nothing
Cons: too many to name
The job was extremely stressful. Not really any support from management who were themselves stressed over the stress of their employees.
No sense of appreciation or community. Not a team environment and very little opportunity for advancement unless you apply for a job that no one else is posting for. Very little professionalism and very political.

Do you like walking
Self Generated Sales Representative (Former Employee), Austin, TX – April 23, 2013
Pros: great incentives for sales
Cons: completely commision based salary
The people I meet here were great but having to walk all day was a different story . We worked the same areas over and over and worked until 9pm out door knocking in very dangerous areas. Due to health issues I could not keep up with being constantly on my feet and walking
