Securitas - Avis

They are not good nor bad, beneficial nor a burden. They are the mosquito of the working world. I’m sure they have a purpose beyond mere annoyance, but I’m also certain that they could disappear and improve everyone’s life by their absence.

Can Be A Great Career, It Depends On Your Attitude

Security Guard (Employé actuel) - Peterborough, ON - 26 novembre 2023

I work in the Peterborough District and I must say that this is one of the best jobs I have ever had. I have been with Securitas now for 3 years and will likely be doing this for more years to come. I started out as part time but made it clear that I desired full time, and within a few months I was given all of the hours I could handle. The company places a high value on your dependability, integrity, availability, work ethic, and your attitude. Rate of pay depends on the contract at each individual site, it can be not much above minimum wage while other assignments can offer much more. Then there are some clients who like to pile as many extra duties on the guards as possible while still paying as low a wage as they can get away with. But in most cases the job is easy and low stress. If you prove yourself on the job, are willing to travel within reason, and the company likes you, they are more than willing to offer you plenty of hours including some OT if you are willing to work it. The company is unionized with excellent benefits which begin immediately upon employment. My Scheduling Manager is excellent and will do all they can to accommodate you in regards to hours, time off, vacations, leave of absence, etc. If you are easily bored or cannot stay awake at night, this job is not for you, but otherwise I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Points positifs

Easy work, reimbursement of licensing fees, boot allowance, paid sick days

Points négatifs

Contract work, varied rate of pay, varied hours

One of the least organized company

Security Guard (Employé actuel) - Montréal, QC - 22 novembre 2023

The place is clearly understaffed, I tend to do some overtime with no bonuses. Job isn't stable. The salary isn't very appealing either. People are often not professional, they're lazy, because tasks become really repetitive.

Easy job, terrible pay, and even worse management.

Security Guard (Ancien employé) - Ottawa, ON - 31 octobre 2023

Worked for Securitas as a security guard at a healthcare place with forensic people for one year, for minimum wage. Took 6 months for them to switch the rotational schedule with horrible hours to a set schedule according to seniority/availability. My site supervisor told me that we weren't entitled of having breaks because we were security guards and that the company was paying us for the breaks. Horrible managers, unpaid worked hours, some extremely lazy/unreliable co-workers, poor/toxic work environment with no opportunity to growth.

Points positifs

Easy job

Points négatifs

Workplace harassment, horrible pay, no management, toxic environment.

Bon salaire

Agent de sécurité (Employé actuel) - Saint-Augustin-de-Desmaures, QC - 29 octobre 2023

Cette compagnie offre un bon salaire si on compare à la compétition. Cependant, cette compagnie fait plein de ''cheap shots'' aux employés pour économiser de l'argent.

Good pay starting out, terrible hours & work environment

Pre-Board Screening Officer (Ancien employé) - St. John's, NL - 17 octobre 2023

The pay is decent starting out. They start you as part time and transition you to full time based on seniority, but you still get plenty of hours as a part timer. The schedule is awful, with shifts starting as early as 3:00am and as late as 5:00pm, with management just throwing you on the schedule wherever they need coverage making sleep nearly impossible. The work environment is also poor. Everyone complains all the time. The senior employees don't like the new employees and purposely try to catch them making mistakes so that they can write them up with management. Very toxic. Overall, I would not recommend working here,

It was a great place to work before Securitas stepped in

Screening Officer (Employé actuel) - Nova Scotia - 12 septembre 2023

I worked with them for over 10 years. When I started, it was really promising, but was a different company at that point. It was a great place to work before Securitas stepped in, I wouldn’t recommend working for them if you have any other option.They took the life out of my workplace. Securitas cares about their financial goals only, and that’s clear to see when working for them.Horrible upper management and gossip.

Travail par contrat

Agent de sécurité (Employé actuel) - Montréal, QC - 16 août 2023

Rentrer avec téléphone pour confirmer le quart de travail, faire des rondes intérieur et extérieur avec patrouille, surveillance des caméras, gestion des clefs appel d'urgence, informer clients, étudiants, donner des billets de contraventions stationnement, protection des immeubles, employés et étudiants. Bonne équipes quand ont peut les gardé, très stressant car des fois ont marche sur des oeufs.Faut avoir la couenne dure pour travailler sur se contrat car la plupart du temps les insultes et injures de certains employés et ou étudiants peuvent atteindre le moral.

Points positifs

Bon Employés et esprit d'équipe

Points négatifs

Salaire et assurance minimum

entrevue bizarre et mal organiser. Donne faux espoirs

Conseillère en recrutement (Ancien employé) - Montréal, QC - 13 août 2023

La personne qui était en charge des entrevues en attendant de combler le poste de conseillère en recrutement (pour le poste de congé maternité de 1 ans) était pas à l'aise de faire ce genre de tâche et cela paraissait au téléphone. Une fois l'entrevue téléphonique faite, tout c'est bien passé et il m'a demandé des dates d'entrevues présentiels et nous avions pas les mêmes jours commun puisque je travail la semaine. J'ai finalement donné carte blanche pour faire l'entrevue avec une journée qui leur convient et il m'a répondu qu'il allait me rappeller tout de suite après qu'il aie demander à son directeur pour savoir quel journée serait l'idéal. Après 1h30 d'attente, j'ai décider de le rappeller et il m'a dit que justement il allait m'appeller et il m'a finalement dit que son directeur lui a dit d'attendre ,car il y avait d'autre candidat à voir. Deception totale, jamais eu de retour d'appel et ils ont enlevé l'affichage de poste donc ils l'ont comblé le poste. L'expérience candidat était très mauvais et il m'a donné un faux espoir , car nous étions rendu à parler du 2e entrevues pour en présentiels et tout s'est envolé en un coup. J'ai pas aimé le sentiment.

Points négatifs

entrevue mal fait, mal organiser
