No advanced training/No advancement period
Security Guard (Former Employee) – Timmins, ON – 25 March 2018
No worse or better than the other northern Ontario security companies. Management is terrible and lazy and head office cares little or not at all about this region. its impossible to get any extra certifications or training and the fact there's a union is worse as you pay them monthly for nothing. The only way you'll make a little more money is if you get on at a mine site and even then the Janitor will make 2 - 5$ an hour more than you and his only responsibility is making sure there's toilet paper and yours is the safety of the employees on surface and underground, the security of all valuables on the property, control of access to the property, switchboard, inspections of people and vehicles, housekeeping among many other things and if something gets missed or a mistake made guess who's getting chopped. do yourself a favor and be the janitor, no responsibility, no headaches, no union taking your money for nothing just go to work, clean and go home with a bigger paycheck and more thanks then you'll ever get as a guard.
Pros
none other than its a paycheck
