ESM Security Employee Review

Ynfit bosses, toxic culture

Security Guard (Former Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 29 August 2021

Some job sites are physically demanding. Which is fine. But I bet the big bossess won't be able to do them cause they're so physically unfit. They LIE about your wage. MANIPULATE poor clueless immigrants. Bunch of RACISTS!!!

Pros

None

Cons

Toxic culture

Good job for experience

Loss Prevention/Security Guard (Current Employee) - Thunder Bay, ON - 10 January 2023

The company it’s self needs improvement, but it’s the same as any other security company, you’re just another number, management don’t seem interested in be involved with the employees, when you need to reach management other then the supervisor (whom is new currently) it’s a good place to work if your looking to get security experience and a small amount of loss prevention. People constantly call in sick so you might as well forget about your day to day life cause you’ll feel obligated to cover your relief cause they can’t come in and you don’t want to leave the staff of the store with out a guard. For some reason the company has a hard time filling the positions so they subcontract it to another company and pays them $3.00 more then they pay their own staff. Over all I give esm 2.5 stars it’s another security.

Pros

Not a lot, Can leave for lunch, beer store staff can be cool

Cons

No life to work life balance, no benefits, mediocre pay and management hard to reach.

Relax work environment

Security Guard (Current Employee) - Edmonton, AB - 5 July 2021

When I heard they were paying 16$/hr. I was NOT interested AT ALL.But then I found out they pay OT after 8hrs , that’s when I changed my mind. So I’m averaging more money in a day than most companies at the moment. It’s a good company. There are just guards that don’t take their job seriously and that’s why it can hurt the company. We do a good job and the clients will keep us longer at their site. We all need to be working. Two new women supervisors there.

Pros

OT after 8 hrs, Vehicle Allowance and Mileage outside de city

Cons

Long hours sitting in a car, rain, snow, slow and busy work
