Garda Employer Reviews

Garda has different job titles. Some departments work through the night when some have morning shifts

Every day is an adventure full of opportunities to learn and advance.

I enjoyed working at this company. It was easy work, easy to learn if you pay attention. This company is willing to work with your schedule needs. However, management could use some improvement. No type of structure and unprofessional at times.

i loved my job in the beginning but lately things have been poor and lack of. Ive been here 13yrs and theres no room for me to grow. They say Im maxed out pay i make $15 from 13yrs. Its just time to go

dangerous worrying if something may happen.having authority. great people too work with.

Schedule is what you make it, the faster you work the faster you get home. Management could use some help in the logistics department and organization of daily operations. To focused on the bottom line, and misses all areas to save/ grow through there employees.

I would arrive at work at 6:30am clock in and then check over my truck so that it will run properly. After which would deliver cash on a route to specific companies like target or banks. Management did what they could to compensate for any issues that arose. Was pretty friendly with my co-workers. I was setup with someone different every other week – more... so it was easy to get friendly with my co-workers. The hardest part of the job was having to wait for the area to appear safe to deliver to the companies. The most enjoyable was meeting someone new everyday. – less

The day starts with checking out emails and manifesting, need to be very accurate with jobs. Since, you are handling large amount of money. I learned to be punctual and interacting with co-workers.

work is hard but had it fun times. times the weather or other things would make it difficult to work, but like any job, the work has to be done

They have there EE's transfer then Lay them off....instantly.
Management Is disgusting...lot's of "cliques"...if ur not a part of it..you're consider odd and forget about the HR...they are part of the "consipiracys".....

A typical day at work consists of placing correct change needed for the day in the armor truck, cleaning and maintenance of the vehicle. I was in charge of delivering money to venues such as retails and banks. Filling cash orders and/or accepting and verifying large volume cash deposits. Management was ok; they dealt with important issues when employees – more... would bring them. The hardest part of the job was the stress level, the thought and the possibility of being held at gun point or having the armor truck robbed. The positive aspect of the job were meeting vast amount of different people through out the day. – less

Working for an armored car company is a very interesting job. The job itself was pretty easy, but not it's not for everyone.

grab your coin and currency put it in your truck head out the door rush to get the day done in 8hrs or less. what the company wants. they want us in early to cut cost down but wont put it in writing so if we get into an accident its on us not them

I enjoyed my job because I worked around and with very productive, reliable, organized and hard working people.

A typical work day was driving to different locations, dropping off and picking up bags of money. Safety was the number one key to a successful day. Counting the bags and making sure that everything was delivered in a timely manner and correct.

I would everything in my power to never work at this place again! It's a knock off of Brinks and it's funded that way! Poor equipment and poor attitudes with firearms DON'T MIX!

I've been working here for 4 yrs now. The job is fairly easy; pick up cash and sell it to our vault, or you deliver money. Just now that the company is going full corp, they are pinching every penny they can. This meaning they rush you to finish your run within 8 hrs. Not complaining, I'm just stating the facts. You have have a long run, but it boils – more... down to how you and your partner mix. This makes or breaks your day and I can say at least 70 percent of the drivers/messengers are good to go. Other than that, it's going to be a long day. – less

No job advancement, not for a family person.But a good learning experience.

A typical day working at Garda was always interesting. I say interesting cause things may have changed day by day. I have learned how to count in bulk, fan and weigh money that were already strapped as well as spot counterfeit bills. Management was excellent and hands on as far as if we were behind they were quick to hop on to help us out. The co-workers – more... I had there were awesome always wiling to share ways on how to get your numbers up (deposits processed per hour) The hardest part I would say was the hardest was being alone in a room and not talking to anyone for eight plus hours. The most enjoyable part was being apart of a team. – less

I was told this was a clerical position but it was actually a processing teller position.
