I work for guardian for a number of years and left on a positive note . The job is great as long as you don't have to deal with management . I had positive but mostly negative memories of them. TheThe Gm couldn't remember me even tho I had met him multiple times, dispatch will ...
I've been with Guardian for at least 2 years now and it has been the best company that I have been with since I've been in security for the last 6 year's, I was promoted to Supervisor within two months of being with the company. My operations manager David wood has shown me that he appreciates and a...
I applied for a job,and was never contacted back,so I don't know,and I don't care.
I have all certifications including conceal carry & i would like to work for your company. I fill out app. about 4 months ago but got no response yet.
Guardian is TRULY one of the most unprofessional security companies to work for. Because the Managment is inept, and two-faced. Plus the medical benefits are cheap and low end; working for that cheap, low end, bootleg, lily-white-Guardian Security, make one want to find a job in another line of work...
I applied with Guardian Security and found out in order to work for them, i had to cut off my locks. Ok, doable. Then i was promised a 13hr supervisor position. A little low for a Sup, but still doable. Afterwards i find out that my site supervisor is Kyliesha McCall, and even after reading the horr...
I am looking to hire a security company for a church. This is terrible, not one review from a contracted customer. The majority of the reviews were from former employees talking about how bad the company is and the rest are the current employees and owner responding about how good of a place it is...
I been working for them almost a year I love the staff they are very nice and they are about they BUSSINESS if you looking for a great job opportunity come here with us
Hello beautiful people! I've been applying for this company for the last three years, I've left about a hundred messages for Jason, no follow up call, no nothing, I'm starting to think it's personal, a past higher authority that's holding a grudge, God sees EVERYTHING, who ever you are, nothing good...
I met Mr. Dominic three years ago and at the time I did not know that he was with Guardian Security. I was working with a company that had lost it's account and I did not have any idea how I was going to make ends meet. Mr. Dominic saw something in me that I did not see in myself. I gave him a tour...
I been working here for six months I been happy by far, the pay is ok can t complain it pays the bills. The management team is respectful and understanding and I never had issues with them. There is open opportunities to move up with company and there s plenty of overtime
This happened to my wife at their Interlake Mecalux account. I just posted this to Interlace's Google and I doubt anything has been done. Now I will have to arrive with the protesters today. And I hope he's there because I will be looking for him.
Protest for more than no union. Protest for their...
Have worked here for 7 years. Great experience and great people.
I have been working Guardian security for 16 months, the last 14 months as site supervisor at a distribution warehouse in Naperville. Once you get over the hump on all the initial expenses and you find a site that you enjoy working at, it s a decent company to for work. Your operational manager wil...
As MANY others have stated, the front desk is extremely rude, that's a major red flag off the bat. I wouldn't want someone with that demeanor to be handling my payroll and W2 at the end of the year. Poor scheduling on the management as interviews were backed up by at least an hour or two based on th...
I want to come at this from a different perspective. I am on Social Security and was looking for a supplemental job for some extra income. At Guardian when interviewed I told them of my availability and how far I was willing to travel each way. I have been in positions no further that 18 miles from ...
Guardians chain of command is so stupid. I worked with Kyliesha McCall. She has got to be the most stupid person in the world. She is unorganized, and she contradicts herself all the time. She undermines her staff and never listen to her Supervisors. Also manipulates her Supervisors to look down and...
If I can give them NO STAR I WOULD!!!! Horrible company they judge you and criticize you!! I wouldn't recommend anyone to work here!! They don't give check stubs and they will try to cheat you out of your pay! I hate these bastards and hope their company falls apart and shuts down for good.
Guardian Has been Great to me ......Cant complain at all....
The Staff At This Company Are Very Rude And Will Ignore You. Then They Lie and say they have full time positions, but when you go ALL THE WAY to the interview, they ll tell you it s really part time. Don t waste your time to be lied to and judged, because trust me they will judge you and give you a ...
I worked for Guardian for one year. ( I had to leave for personal reasons) Guardian is very strict on guard appearance. This is a good thing. When you work with the public appearance is everything. Where I presently work some guards show up out of uniform. They have long unwashed hair. Ugly shoes. ...
I have called guardian home for the last 5 years. When I first got called I didn't have much experience so they place me at a few sites to have supervision and learn . After a few months of bouncing around they place me full time at a site that I have been at since 2012. I have work...
Stay away from this place. The reviews are horrible for a reason! It has by far been my worst experience at a company, low pay and unethical practices. Avoid this place!
Doesn't pay employees a living wage ! Treats them dishonesty! Can you trust them?
Make sure you don't have any other plans for the rest of the day because the wait is unbelievable. Felt like I was in slow motion when I was waiting.
I interviewed with David Wood 2-1/2 yrs ago and was given an opportunity at a residental post. I am still currently at my first post assigned and now a Supervisor. All of my tenants and bldg mgmt are wonderful! I couldnt ask for more. We thrive on a high customer service level and will continue ...
I've never worked for Gaurdian Security . I understand both positive, and negative emotions on how people feel. I was a site supervisor for 2 years at 2 different sites. It's not always about the company. It's what you but in to it. One site I took over was a catastrophe. Tardiness or no call no ...
I RECENTLY went for an interview. I was interviewed by Jason. The man was more focused on what I had on and me Not having an UPDATED resume. Which Ian was already informed of that. I have all my Credentials. Jason insisted on giving me "PROFESSIONAL CRITICISM" as he worded it. I left the interview f...
Absolutely 0 star for this company. They don't even offer free uniforms and direct deposit to their employees. It's a very cheap company and the room for advancement is none! It's not a coincidence that there are so many bad reviews about them. Poor management, poor benefits, poor future for someone...
I, JUST HAD A FOURTH INTERVIEW WITH THIS COMPANY. THE NAME OF THE SUPERVISOR ON OPERATIONS WAS VERY RUDE!! HE SPOKE TO ME RUDE ON THE ZOOM CAMERA AND CUT ME OFF, THE NAME OF THIS INDIVIDUAL IS (Clinton Claiborn) THIS COMPANY SHOULD BE MORE RESPECTFUL AND LEARN HOW TO RESPECT PEOPLE AT ALL TIME !! ...
One of the best security companies I have ever worked at they are professional I use to work at a different security company that always lies and they never answer their phone when you have a problem. Also all guardian guards always dress professional.
Didn't seem to have it together. Bad communication and unprofessional.
When you give the guard the name to whos coming in he gives them still a hard time he makes them wait
I have to tell you all what happened to me here at guardian security so here it goes....
Well I got done with my security thing got all my certifications PERC card etc and wanted to find a good place to work so my instructor told me about guardian security so I talked to a lady named marge and she ...
I've had a horrible experience working with Guardian security. The office staff gives the illusion of professionalism, but it's really a temp service. The management promises you during hiring that they are always available through call or email, yet It's almost Impossible possible to ge get in con...
This is a awesome company to work for. There is plenty of room for you to move up within the company. I have been with the company for six months and I have been made the supervisor at my site. They also offer a great starting pay. My Operations Manager said to me in my interview that "hard work pay...
If you're educated, qualified, and have plenty of experience, they will not hire you, BEWARE! I'm sure it's a great company to work for but they hire people with no education, no experience, and who just got their FOID card for the first time. Why you might ask? To offer them the minimum wage possib...
Horrible company. Was offered four days a week, and only received one day. They made me buy three uniforms for working one day. My pay was incorrect, they told me one thing and paid me a different. Do not work for this company. They make their money by selling uniforms.
Incompetent HR. No incentives for long term employees. Terrible payroll employees with an idiotic pay period. Hilariously bad insurance plans and general benefits. This company is a joke.
A lot can be said about this company and none of it is good. It's a horrible comany who's only interest is putting money in the poorly ran management team's pockets. They care little about their officers and I would give 0 stars if I could. (Not a disgruntled employee just someone who got out as soo...
I'm clara Robertson doing security officer last past 11yrs.all officers must demonstrate the ability to read.speak and write in English for the following purpose.
worst company in illinois, especialy David they dont have no respect what so ever, they judge you by the way you look.worst hiring company...dont go here
WORSE COMPANY IN THE WHOLE ENTIRE WORLD. THEY DO NOT COMMUNICATE WITH EMPLOYEES AND THEY CHARGE YOU FOR EVERYTHING THEY CAN INSTEAD OF PAYING YOU.
I have worked with Guardian Security for 2 years now, being in the security field for over 15 years I must say guardian security value the work that I do. My Operation Manager David Woods truly cares about his officers and will go above and beyond for all of his employee. I made site supervisor in ...
This company is BEYOND AWFUL!!! One of their security employees verbally assaulted one of my customers by yelling homophobic slurs and other foul language. The company took absolutely no responsibility for their employee's actions. DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY IF YOU VALUE YOUR CUSTOMERS!!!!
I been working here for six months I been happy by far, the pay is ok can t complain it pays the bills. The management team is respectful and understanding and I never had issues with them. There is open opportunities to move up with company and there s plenty of overtime
Speaking for my experiences with Guardian Security Services (GSS) with the Residential Property Division under the direction of the Operational Manager things have been wonderful and even great. There's an open door policy with management; and they're willing to work with those employees who are wi...
Worste company too work for in the entire security industry. 1st after you make it past the B.S. interview process they make you show up to orientation to sit there in business attire. Later you will change into your uniform. They'll promise you pay that you won't receive.
Speaking of Uniforms yo...
VERY BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE. I WENT IN FOR AN INTERVIEW AT THE BLUE ISLAND, IL LOCATION. The lady at the front desk ignored me and act like she couldn t hear me. Then I ll traveled a whole hour to the interview just to be interviewed for 5 min. The staff have stinky attitudes for no reason. Negative ...
Last few reviews were clearly written by company representatives to counterbalance the many negative reviews. Is it really a coincidence that all the 5-star reviews mention a David Wood and were written around the exact same time? He's clearly on a massive ego trip where he or one of his cronies mus...
This company is a pure joke among other contract security companies. I went for the interview with Manager Nick at the Blue Island location. My impression was that he judged me based on my appearance not necessarily the experience and skills. This is already a red flag. He was so happy and proud to ...
I currently work for this company the overall is great,I believe the pay should be better.I have to say marge is wonderful and Dave Wood takes pride in his work he is the best to talk to when you have a situation he deserves a raise he is a great person to work with he is very understanding he take...
I have been employed with Guardian for 6 months now. While the pay is not the greatest, and yes it s true you have to payroll deduct your uniforms and badge, this is not uncommon with many Security Firms. Everyone hired typically interviews well, and looks good on paper. But sadly cannot handle the ...
they lie to you when you apply, charge 200.00 for crappy uniforms, they don't listen to you when you tell them your availability and they don't pay like they promise. then they demand your uniforms that you were forced to pay them 200.00 for and do not reimburse you for them. or the badges.
I LOVE my job with Guardian Security Services. Yes, it is correct that you have to pay for uniforms, however, it does get deducted in increments from future checks. This did not deter me from accepting a position in this firm as I saw a full-time job as a bigger reward. I was placed in a gated commu...
They are so prejudice in that place.. I went for an interview, the woman took one look at my dreads and turned her nose. To all my african american ppl, please don't apply for this company. If you want to work for a company that don't judge, bypass this company. I would rather work for Donald Trump.
I was first interviewed by a lady she liked my security background. I achieved a second interview. Second interview was by a guy basically repeated everything from the first interview which was fine..Then was like if you don't hear from me in two days you already know your answer. Waste of time. Alw...
Seem to be a great company to work for as a security guard.
I have been employed at Guardian for a year. Is Guardian perfect? No, nobody is. But, Guardian far exceeds competing security companies both from the point of view of an employee as well as the clients. To be a Guardian security officer is to be a cut above the average because Guardian interviews so...
Seems like an ok company but I do no appreciate their payroll practices whatsoever. At least with Allied, you knew what to expect on payday because the check stub was issued on Mondays, Tuesdays at the latest. Then you get paid on Thursday..or earlier if you used NetSpend or Chime. But because they ...
I have been employed here for 4 years. My favorite job by far. If you use your head and give great effort you can go far. Dave Wood best boss I have ever had.
This is the worse place to work at the lady in payroll is something else and the guy in payroll is also something else they do screw with your Pay and there is no communication when they're is a problem a specially with payroll so be very cautious when Appling here or better yet DO NOT APPLY at all ...
Guardian Sucks, I work there for 3 years and had nothing but bad experiences, the management was horrible. The receptionist were rude.... avoid working for them at all cost
