bad company
previous allied employee on Aug 22, 2008 04:04 AMOn the surface allied Barton lookes like a good company to work for and to contract. But in fact the truth is the company does not care about there employees only there customers. Example:I worked at several sites where the management team said the awards given to the officers are not even worth the paper there printed on. Another incident managment would yell and curse at the officers .that is just a fraction of the issues the company Has.and the hr department wouldn't do anything about these issues that I and several officers brought to there attention creating a bad work environment. Think twice before conducting business with allied Barton security.
