Pennine Security Solutions

I have worked for Pennine for a few years now. Working in security has its challenges but this company sat down and asked my what my schedule was rather than just assigning work to me. This helped me balance a number of obligations and be able to work.
Pennine works mainly in condos so I understand the politics with it. A number of comments suggest that it is management who makes changes when most of the direction comes from the site itself. If you do a good job, the site will want to keep you. If you do a bad job, the site can ask for you to be removed. Doesn't mean you lost your job, and I have seen Pennine try to give people a second chance and place them at a new site that may be work better for them.
When I needed to change my hours due to personal reasons the office found me something and helped me with the move over. I even got a bit of a pay raise because the new site paid more. It's hard to comment on a work culture when it depends on the site you are placed at. Management always visit and check on staff and they do go out of their way to have your back if you're not in the wrong.
Like any other security company I have worked for they have rules and policies, and the nice thing is that they apply them to everyone equally. Some companies show favouritism to the staff they like or the ones who help them out all the time. 
Promotions have been sent to me by email so I see they do look for people within first which is great for anyone wanting to move up.
Each year I have had a performance review and talked about the good things and bad things over the year. I like how they listen to suggestions and explanations.
The hardest part of the job is trying to keep everyone happy at your site while performing the duties required. Because it is security, you have to work stat holidays if you are scheduled.
The most enjoyable part is that each day is never the same. I have helped at the events in the past and it can get a little boring but the sun was shining and I got a free lunch, water and plenty of breaks. It was good money for the work needed.

What is the best part of working at the company?
I have been working for the last 2 years with Pennine, i have had great experience from the day one when i started till now.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
I don't think so I have every felt any stress while working with this company as a full-time and part-time employee.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
My workplace is so friendly and peaceful although i like busy on my shift i never feel that my work is stressful or my duties are hard.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
I think the typical day in the company I didn't faced yet all the team members in the company are so nice, especially the HR and dispatch team.

Their elevators are out of order all the time. Management is very poor. Hardest part of the job is elevators all the time guests wants elevators to use for their luggage but alas it's all out of order. Nothing is They will gives you 2 sites in 1 salary and when you resign they will start giving you hard time through cheque even they have all information about your direct deposit. I left job 1 an half month ago but they didn't clear my dues yet even I returned everything. So this company is very bad. I suggest people dod not waste your precious time with them..

Great working environment with supportive staff and management. 
Still has the people aspect that other security companies are losing. The office staff is friendly and does not make you feel like another number on an assembly line and you are treated with respect.
Their recruitment process is thorough, and the management team works with you to place you at sites that are best suited to your skill set. 
There is also room for growth and advancement with the company if you work hard and take pride and responsibility in you work. 
Overall great growing company to work for!

After working for the company for years, I have enjoyed having the experience of occasional traveling to other cities to do coverages but also staying in the same city. As well as doing special events and interacting with people. If ur looking for occasional hours, or part time hours or fulltime hours than they will help you get the hours u want/need.

This company has the worst management team with zero professionalism.  Nobody knows what they are doing. There's no proper communication even between the management itself. One member of the staff will commit something with you which the other one will completely disregard and then when you try to talk to them or explain, they won't pick up your call ( i tried calling from a different number and they picked up) They purposely ignore you to cover up for themselves.

Great Company to work for 

• Friendly, often relaxed atmosphere.
• No one is ever too busy to help out each other.
• Employees are encouraged to undertake further training to benefit their careers.
• Flexible working hours with the option to work from home in certain situations.
• Senior management are open and honest with us (which has improved greatly over the time I've been here).
• On-site cafe with free lunches.
• Free parking.

This company is run by people who do not have a clue what they are doing, are not organized, will knife you in the back with out a second thought, lie to your face, approve your vacation request only to change and revoke it 2 weeks prior to your vacation date, and go out of there way to annoy the senior guards to the point they quit after working at a site for 30 years.

I am going to keep this nice & short. I've been working for Pennine for 3 years & Pennine Management is very friendly & caring, they gave me a site that I really enjoy working for. The pay is fair, benefits are great and my schedule is permanent and it does not change unless I ask for more hours from the schedular.

this company is a very bad place to work
they have some mean members that they will try to force you to babysit them otherwise better run away
if you can't stand mean co-worker
the schedule is not fixed, they change your duties according to what they like 
they will hold your money to pay for the uniform and then they don't care about anything else
