Pros

None for this job, find better options

Cons

*manager takes forever to do what you asked *pay is low, needs to be more since it takes time to travel to the job site *needs better benefits (5 days of PTO is not enough & THERE IS NO SICK TIME). These 5 days are for you sicktime, vacation, and whatever, and they last until they decide to give you more time. I've been here for 2 years now, so let that sink in. *Upper management seriously needs new people who actually care and know what they are doing, without shifting blame or onus to someone else They are just an all-around horrid company to work for, in my opinion. Form your own if you apply, but I will say the turnaround is even worse.

Pros

As a current manager at Sunstates Security, I’ve had the opportunity to see both the operational and employee sides of the business, and overall, my experience has been very positive. The company provides strong support to its leadership team and encourages professional growth. There are clear opportunities for advancement, and I’ve seen many employees—including myself—benefit from internal promotions. Compensation is competitive within the industry, and the benefits package, including healthcare, PTO, and retirement options, adds meaningful value. From a cultural standpoint, Sunstates stands out. There is a consistent emphasis on respect, accountability, and employee recognition, which helps build strong teams and maintain morale. Diversity and inclusion are also genuine priorities. As a manager, I’ve worked with a diverse group of employees and have seen the company foster an inclusive environment where people feel respected and supported. Senior management is approachable and communicates expectations clearly. There is a sense of direction and stability within the organization that makes it easier to lead effectively. Work-life balance can be challenging at times due to the nature of contract security and client needs, but overall, it has been manageable, especially with proper planning and team support.

Cons

Operational demands and scheduling can vary depending on client contracts, which can occasionally require additional flexibility from management.
