US SECURITY ASSOCIATES favortism, abuse, sexual harassment, you name it.. favortism, abuse, sexual harassment, unsupervised, neglect you name it.. Jacksonville, Florida
I use to be the Field Supervisor of this Company. It was up to 2 weeks ago that they demoted me after working for this comany for 3 years. I was a very devoted employee, I worked when they wanted, and where they wanted. I did not complain at first. I heard first hand how they treat the employees. They were not treated with respect, and they were not even supervised. The Field Supervisor that worked with me quit shortly after I was demoted. She was tired of working her butt of for nothing. You did not get a raise, you did not get payed vacation, you did not get sick days, and you had to fight tooth and nail to get a day off. Now if you were devoted like I was, the manager Chris Hinely would give you the common curtisy and let you go, but you had to make it so that you did not give them the choice to reject you. They hire poor quality people a lot, just to fill in posts. I don't know how many times I went to a post, found people sleeping, took pictures, and evenwrote a disciplinary report on them. Nothing was done. The manage sometimes would take the report and file it away in the garbage. If he didn't have it in writeing ...it did not happen.
If you want more information about this company? Please...Reply back to this posting..
I will give you all the answers that you need.
I currently still work for this company, and after being demoted, I am still training the New Field Supervisors on how to do their jobs.
I was the best Supervisor around, and I was the only one that cared about the employees, and they loved me.
Most of the Guards don't know that I have been removed fom the position, on the account that they will quit if they found out.
I hold a high quality, and respect for my guards that do thier job, and are enthsiastic about doing the job the right way. I do not hold people in high respect when they think that security is just a way to make a quick buck, and they can sit on their butts all day, and just do nothing. Some watch DVD's...play on laptops..play video game systems on the job.... watch TV.. I mean litterally bring their tv from home to watch it. THAT is how unsupervised this company is.
There is a LOT more, but I will respond to your comments as you make them.
The Office FIXES your paycheck (hours), Don't pay you for all the hours you have owrked.. especially if you got OT... I could give you names and numbers of employees that had to quit due to not getting their paycheck. And Job references? Don't bother putting them down.. They wont answer the phone. They do not GIVE job references. Employees would give their new jobs my number without me know about it. I would think that they were calling me as a personal reference, but at the end of the call they state that is was a job referense. I would tell them I am just a personal reference. Job wise.. I could not give them any information.
I use to work 80 hour days, and then was forced by the office to cut my hours down, and REGULATE my hours. I worked 24 hours a day somtimes...and still was not given my OT pay. The office found a way to split it into the next pay period. WITHOUT consulting me...That is illeagal... and this branch should be monitored by coorprate... BUT.. Coorprate does not care about what is going on.. As long as the job gets done.. they don't want to hear about it.
Let me know what you want to know.. I will be happy to answer questions.
I currently still work for this company as a security officer. I have no way of getting another job, due to this company not giving me job reference. So it looks to the other company that I was not a good employee.
They do not call you if you do not gt a job reference for working for a company for 3 years.

I have worked with USSA on several Occasions have a 16 year history in Security and you are correct on one thing they hire crappy employees if they promoted you to field supervisor. Your spelling is atrocious and your management skills suck if you didn't take care of the sleeping SO by calling in immediately and reporting it. Taking pictures really. I run with a body cam and every time I came across a sleeping SO I always got permission to send him home once I got a replacement

They do the drug test in office so that they can decide if they still want you or not.

You need to quit the company. ..they are only going to ignore you...not pay you your hours worked. ...jerk you around......get out now......Work for (((competitors'names redacted)))....or **. ...or **...... US Security only sees you as a body...nothing else... I was a Field Supervisor of the company. ...they are corrupt. ..talk ditty about their employees behind closed doors....complain about the littlest things....try to con you into working shifts that you know you should not be working. ...make you feel guilty.....Not pay you for your hours worked....tell you that you worked too many hours so they are not going to pay you for a certain amount of time. .....Work you to death and then keep an eye on you to see if you are sleeping on the job so they can fire you. They will take your hours away and not fire you if they do not have a reason to fire you. ...you name it...I have witnessed it.....and had to perform those nightly and daily...drive by post and spy on the guards......... I worked as a dedicated employee. ..going above and beyond my duty...try to raise my rank....and when I did....I saw behind the scenes. ....and I got to hear what was being said........Ask me anything.....I will never lie.... I was molested by one of the Field Supervisors when I was demoted....they took my hours away....Only had crappy hours every so often when no one else wanted to work those posts......they use you when they do not want to work those hours themselves. ......

#7UPDATE Employee ..inside information

I am a new hire with this "Guard" company and have been with them for a month. I was given an offer by the District Manager after interviewing with him and accepted it as an Armed Guard. So far I am not impressed and seriously concerned about my pay. My very first paycheck does not reflect the hours I worked or the pay I was offered and accepted. Also after having spent a whole day computer training at the main office the Receptionist says we arent getting paid for that day which is illegal. The Armed Supervisor has no sense of urgency and so far has been dishonest about my pay and when asked about it says "I'll look into it" and doesnt. I am supposed to be a fulltime Guard but only got 36 hrs this last week. I had been told that I would get paid two additional hours per shift at a site almost an hour away from my home but was not paid that. I am not being given a schedule but instead am being treated as an oncall Guard and being called last minute for shifts. I conflicted as to whether I should approach the DM because as a new employee I dont know who to trust. What can I do?

Dark one,
My uncle worked for this company for more than 4 years experiencing the same issues with additional discrimination.
Has a current EEOC complaint that is very promising, this is per the legal dept.
His past supervisor has been found to have submitted false documents and outright lied in many reports. Please contact your local EEOC @ http://www.eeoc.gov/
