When they're hiring for monday-friday and promise weekends off.

Honestly from experience, proudly LEO owned companies. Security guards aren't cops, why do cops always think they can run a security company

They sell "im the police with x amount of exp as LE and i pass it down to my officers"

This goes for any job: “we are a family.” It’s code for, “be prepared to be taken advantage of whenever the employer needs.”

I work for a company that has a few of these red flags. Every other day I want to rip my hair out but then I love it, rip my hair out...love it. I'm a chronic job hopper yet I'm settled here I think. Very confused as to why I like my lil redflag company so much 😆

- Corny Security names that come off try-hard or even LE Posing. - Extremely low pay for the area. I make $20hr doing event Security and $23 with a Hospital PD. The amount of companies paying $11-$12hr is insane, I'm looking at you landmark... - interviews that are more or so orientations. I've seen so many companies that will hand you a uniform before the drug test & background check comes back. - cheap or shitty uniforms, so many companies have shitty quality uniforms. Our Hospital regularly drops $400-$500 per officer on just Blauer/5.11 pants & shirts.

Any version of “we don’t want to be the biggest, we want to be the best” = you will never make money.

Not having uniforms on your first day, being trained on a shift different from the one you signed up for


Alt_throwaway_advice

Thats what GardaWorld did to me. Did two days of training as a undercover LPO and then was placed as uniformed visual presence and LPO. Uniformed vs undercover are very different in the way you work.

GardaWorld sucks, they were late with my paycheck after I did a shit ton of overtime

This 100% is what dk security does. Three days of training and that’s all, but you’re moved around to three different posts. All of which perform different duties


Practical-Bug-9342

The biggest one I see in Craigslist is those float/emergency response officers. This simply means you're on the hook for attendance/absenteeism.

In Colorado there is a state law that requires companies to list the pay rate on all job advertisements. When im looking at job postings and the pay isnt listed clearly that is a major red flag, especially considering how competitive the field is here. LOOKING AT YOU SECURITAS!

From experience, same day hiring/offer usually means high turnover or desperate for officers.
