      It's not how it should be.

      Pros

      Good benefits, well known name for resume

      Cons

      Poor and sometimes diabolical local management, constant fear of layoff, salary freeze, almost non-existant raises or chances for promotion, little recognition if not in sales, doubling up on work, not replacing employees

      Good company, but lousy place to work.

      Pros

      1. The benefits are quite good and reasonably priced. Not a lot of companies these days offer low cost benefits such as medical/dental/life insurance, etc. 2. The pay scale is not bad, though it could be much better given the amount of experience & competence required. 3. The company has been around for a long time and doesn't show any signs of going anywhere. Also something not common with a lot of companies these days in this horrible economy! 4. The amount of time off given per year is pretty decent, though that could also be more liberal in my opinion.

      Cons

      1. Most of the "management" has no clue what the people in the field experience on a day to day basis. 2. Too much emphasis on "ISO" certification and not enough emphasis on using common sense to resolve a problem. 3. Expectations of doing multiple jobs when it's impossible to do so, and absolutely no willingness on management's part to explore the possibilities of other options before implementing new "processes". 4. Too much emphasis on "numbers", without realization that data can be simply WRONG. 5. Unwillingness to compromise on policy when it's clearly demonstrated that policy doesn't work at all!

      Pros

      SBT is a large organization with a lot of experience in the filed. Out of the three main divisons within the company they seem to care the least about the security divison. This was quite obvious when they restructed the organization and very few security managers retained their titles or were reassigned insignificant roles within the organization. This is very surprising considering the huge about of growth in the security industry since 9/11 and the large amount of work being sent out to bid in the tri state area.

      Cons

      Very little interest by Senior Management to grow one part of the business while letting other parts of the business thrive.
