Pros

Easy work, good down time, Some good co workers

Cons

No advancement opportunities. They will tell you there are but then you never see them. The upper management treats you like crap. I worked there for 3 years and for 2 yrs. i was talked to like a dog. only reason i stayed was for a paycheck. You get promoted with no pay increase, was there for 3 yrs and never got a raise, you get employee of the month and not told about it til a year later. The management will tell you one thing then lie about it to make you look bad in front of the client. If you show up early for work you get threatened to be fired even thou you didnt clock in. those that show up late or always call out get promoted. No matter how hard you work its never good enough.

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.
