Bria Agosto, HR Manager @Kent Services, was amazing! During our recruitment event she was extremely efficient, very professional and her superb knowledge of Kent Services was quickly recognized by my staff. We can not wait to have her back." -Johanny Hernandez, Account Manager, Workforce1 Bronx Career Center

Called 10 people for 1 position and then had an electronic door where you had to "input details" l instead of just talking to someone. Walked out as soon as I saw those two things. Plus asked a question and found out it was biweekly pay.

PLEASE READ!!!!!! This is the worst company I have ever worked. I'm not sure if they secure their sites or if you're interviewing for the sites.I was promised that I was going to work at one location. I met the building management and was told I would work at this location. I was not contact it for a week and was told to come in on a late notice which I was able to do.I was then informed the reason I was not contacted was because the job was not originally for me but the guy did not show up I trained on late notice I was told to come back to continue my training. Next morning in the middle of my commute I was told by the hiring manager the contract was lost.for that one day of training I have been waiting a month and a half to get paid I've been told that my hours were processed on two occasions and then told the day I was supposed to be paid something has happened. I also go weeks without being contacted for other sites I don't know if this is a scam or the company is this terrible either way worst experience I've ever had with security. Thank God I have my options open and I'm now working for a company that is respected

Director Luis Gomez draws upon his long military experience in order to deliver uncompromising service to numerous clients in assessing and addressing their security needs. Luis stresses professionalism in the workplace, and strives to take care of individual needs both on the client side and for the security team.

My experience with this company so far was great i would refer anyone to this organization if they re looking for security, when it comes to providing information they tell you precisely everything you need to know an a very professional manner especially bria.

I work at one of the buildings that hires these security guards & they are the worse of worse. These guards either don't speak English, sleep, on their cell phones, or ghetto from the projects & very very disrespectful. I already spoke to the owner and he assured me that the contract is almost up. And Kent Services will be gone soon enough. Don't deal with this company at all!!!

I look forward to working with the company. I love everything about it so far. The only question is can I be able to to clock in if my phone bill was shut off? Do y'all have a phone where everybody can clock in?

I worked for Kent Security Services for 2 years, 2011-2013. No complaints here. I just had to call the office to help me find out when was my first date and last date there and the lady helped me. Great company!

I've worked for Kent for nearly 3 months. And I must say: the company; the office employees; the building clients; and my boss(es) are consummate professionals. They are reasonable, fair, and smart. I would recommend this employer to any responsible person looking to work for exceptionally good people.

Doorman are poorly trained and inconsistent. Management are terrible people. Threatend to fire night door woman when she said she couldn't work a double shift with zero notice on day before Christmas eve.

Staff goes above and beyond to make sure that you know the needed information in order for you to excel with or without them. They told me what I was missing and I came back with the corrections. Now I m working for them just because of the Honesty and Maturity they showed me from the beginning. Plus the job site locations.

The management is terrible. They do not communicate with each other or you. I had two different interviews one in 2018 and one a few weeks ago and they both went great. Each time someone reached out to me to offer me a position and telling me to come into their New York office. Resulting in me traveling out there from jersey city just to be told that their hiring manager wasn t in or it was some kind of miscommunication and to reschedule. Then I would continuously reach out just to be told the position has been filled. So UNPROFESSIONAL

I currently work for this company & to be honest this is the best company I ever worked in my 24 years of living. The manager and staff is Excellent , professional and more importantly they find COVERAGE. There incredibly reliable never miss out on pay or nothing.

I had an absolutely horrible experience with this company. The supervisers DO NOT communicate. The senior supervisor is extremely unprofessional and it's well known through out the company with the employees. They are constantly losing contracts and won't tell you about it until the last minute. They double book people on work sites and reluctant to compensate your money back. Absolutely not worth 15 dollars an hour. I'm surprised these guys is still in business.

The best company! We have tried many other security guard companies. Kent by far has the most professional service around. The management is very responsive and staff is highly trained. They are a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend them!

Very misinformed

Very misinformed
The time that they want you to come in doesn't match what they say on the phone
Interview was poorly done and rushed.
I do not recommend anyone go to this place for work

Worst company, rude dispatcher, rude managers & directors. Y all don t know how to treat people. I have a baby younger then a year old and they trying to force me to do a double shift and then they go and fire me because of it and then they try to say it s my fault and basically force me to quit.

I appreciate the opportunity to be apart of a team with a high level of professionalism. Kent Services taught me a lot about how to be the greatest concierge I can be. There is also room to grow which makes it a great job for an opportunist.

Very nice young woman conducting interviews and they seem like a good company. Just wish they didn't lead you on so much in interviews claiming their people would get back to you in a week and then end up not calling back at all.
