You're pretty much describing every security company out there with the exception of a very few. Allied is pretty much the bottom of the barrel for security companies. Easy to get hired and use as a stepping stone to get credentials to move on. Just follow the money and get your bread with who ever pays more.

22/hr for armed?? 🤣 I don't get out of bed for less than 35.

No sir, I said 22hr for fire watch at the hospital. Unarmed and easiest work of my life.

The security company where I work now is pretty close to the police department, and since I am a supervisor, they make do everything from mobile patrol to dispatcher to training the new guards and more .. I just applied for the Sheriff office and I hope to become a deputy ❤❤

[@moonwalker_818]

It’s always better to work for smaller security companies . They’re less corporate like, unlike allied universal .

[@Securitytips909]

I agree! Allied is still great for getting some experience.

[@traviscates916]

I've been in Security for 9 years 2 years armed. Allied is probably one of the worst companies I've ever worked for as soon as I got my lvl 3 I was out of there.

[@Securitytips909]

Nice work holding it down for 9 years! 💯 I agree, Allied is really only good for getting some experience in my opinion!

Question: The body armor u are wearing. Was that provided by Allied Universal or is that personally owned by u? I'm trying to get hired on by Allied Universal, Garda etc... :)

You should have no trouble getting hired by allied! 👍Call after you applied online! Allied does not provide body armor or vest, just basic uniform pants and shirt/ jacket/ hats & Beanies.

Wassup bro. Been guard 4 years and took a break and just applied with them. Did they give you a raise to make you a site supervisor?

[@Securitytips909]

Yeah bro! I was at 20 and went up to 22hr for site supervisor.

Did they ask for proof of your diploma and where did you get certified to carry pepper spray

No sir, they never asked to see the diploma. I got my cert for pepper spray at valleyguardonline.com I think it was like $30-$40.

That right they are so unorganized management with payroll they never can paid you the correct paid when you work on a holiday when you call them to correct your paid, they get so upset the best thing you can do is call the branch manager in human resources and you work long hour shift and Allied is at the bottom of the barrel.

@@n3gca270 very true. 🤣

[@j.w.7688]

Allied was a good place to "cut my teeth" so to speak in the security industry. However, after 17 months with Allied U., I absolutely HAD to leave. Allied is too "big" their own good! They are so AFRAID of liability, that they micro-manage to a FAULT, and make working for them a nightmare! They have goofey uniforms and silly policies. That said, at least i got a good taste of the civilian security industry. Now, I work for a small company that pays well and gives its Patrol Officers, broad latitude and NEVER micro manages. We are entrusted to simply use good judgement and perform our duties. Allied also has a high personnel turn-over. No BUENO!!!

[@Securitytips909]

@@j.w.7688 very well said!! 👏 I also work with a smaller company that pays well and never micro manage us guards. GOOD DEAL

[@chrisgayler2733]

You should be careful not to get labeled as a job-hopping guard. I would advise guards to carry arms, obtain all your gear, permits, and only leave if you have a better pay scale, say, 2 to 4 bucks.

Allied Universal in NYC has been hiring migrants with temporary work visas over legal citizens. I applied with Allied about a month ago at the Manhattan main office and could not believe the number of Haitians and Africans (from the continent of Africa) sitting in the waiting area for an interview. I went there in need of a job, and about 2 hours later, I walked out with nothing. If you are a legal citizen, do not waste your time applying with Allied Universal. They only hire migrants. I am former Navy with 18 years of security experience and cannot land a job. The truth is the truth. Allied Universal is a joke in poor taste.

[@Securitytips909]

That’s very unfortunate, here in California I see them hiring everyone, maybe it’s just in your area. I wouldn’t know. Good luck landing a job soon!

[@godusoland9122]

Dudes like this are such a joke. I had to train a guy once that was wearing a vest and had real weapons on him, I was looking at him like you can't actually be serious lmao. I think maybe is cause they couldn't make it as a cop or too scared to try so they get into security and play dress up to at least get a taste of what it would be like.

[@Securitytips909]

Thanks for the feedback man! Have a blessed day !
