O'Brien & Associates Reviews

They will drop your name to the person there investigating. Don't ask this comapnay for help. Becides a private comapnay has to right to do the work of the government. P.s. Dont trust jack.

Don t work here, you ll regret it. They hire people with 0 experience, ride you hard while making sure you know you re worthless. They ll lie to you and screw you out of money. There is not one nice thing I can say about working for this company.

They hired me with the benefit of the doubt to find what I have been saying was true. My superior that went out of his way to hire, and help make it possible for me to work there when I kept getting hit up by delinquents in the community is a great person to work with. Great perspective for understanding concepts, and shares same perspective for further future law enforcement efforts. Job acquired was something they had hard time filling, for they lack any benefits giving there contracted company requires the right mentality to deal with a lot of unscrupulous behavior alone in unfair/unfit environments. However this makes it difficult and creates detrimental effects like disciplinary action if you're hospitalized and forced not to work. I will miss some of the good people I had a pleasure to work with as I pursue my endeavors. Thanks O'brian & Associates. Lots of threats, and a lot of interesting experiences to reflect positive on others. Company dose like to hire a bunch of meat heads to do activity reports, because they haven't got much to complain about "small" and don't deal with the real stuff anyways by allowances against policy rules to build there confidence.

Don t take a job with this company. They pay just a touch above minimum wage and if you try and quit or he fires you he will come after you with lawyers.

Company is a privilege to work for if you have the opportunity.

I worked for them since 2004 to 2015. It was a wild ride. Fun, entertaining, I had bribes (a sex offer even) and I two death threats! As some examples.

Pros:
You work in a contracted world. This means you are challenged to keep your company policies, the contracted policies and deal with all management styles. I enjoy challenges and maintaining policy!

You work with all types of customers too. Meeting every walk of life and emotional states of mind. It is never, no never a dull moment. Well, perhaps late on night before closing times and winter season.

Cons:

A little above minimum wage means the government will be after you for insurance! Especially at tax time! O'Brien has little control as he pays fair, that is a fact, but the contracted service controls the amount they will pay P.I./Security company for a service. This is a competitive business, sad fact those contracted services do not appreciate that you GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!

Four stars? Sorry, but no insurance coverage lost the star in country that NOW demands you must have insurance.

An excellent, no nonsense, commonsense, and straightforward company run by top notch experts. I've been in retail loss prevention since 1989 with 4 different companies and O'Brien and Associates is the best.

I worked for the company for about 4 months. Just recently I was terminated and I never received any verbal, written, or Final write ups. When I got hired I was in training and only received 4 days of training and had 0 experience. my manager resigns after 14days of me starting so I was completely clueless but, Still did my best to work and prove that I could do this. I enjoyed the LP position but not having the benefit of PTO was the only thing that was the downer for me but i knew that and still wanted to pursue working for the company. I was told I wasn t doing what i was told but yet I was only told to walk around more which I did and have my steps record to prove that to get a call on my day off Saying I was terminated. I felt so disrespected I literally felt like I was doing a good job at least the employees of the store we assisted would tell me i was. I would have customers ask me to help all the time and I would help to make sure I set a good example for Obrien and Associates even tho they didn t require you to do so. I took my job very seriously but maybe too serious. I just wish they would have at least gave me write up or something instead. I will probably get bashed for not doing my job so sad. Mr O Brien spent years developing this company I admire his portfolio but I m not sure that he knows how things are he mishandled. I would only speak when requested to look up things or investigate something and I would always followed up . I was always working and never denied any request. I m just confused I never received any Disciplinary action other than just being terminated.

Racist staff member.
I have the receipts Kate.
