Pros

flexible shifts having a mid-week weekend one week and a sat-sun the next very favorible, variety of shifts days/afternoons/nights, meet people who become lifelong friends outside work

Cons

1. minimum wage 2. dangerous work 3. complaints by members of the public who do wrong are believed more than the guards honest point of view - in other words armourguard are more concerned about their image by believing false allegations over the honesty of their employees 4. try calling in sick? good luck they will expect you to work while running a 39/40c temp, blocked nose and a cough or else they can sack you for it or even standing up for yourself if you are sick but tell their pencil pushers in the office to stay home and isolate. They seriously need to be investigated for breaching government covid laws which require sick people to isolate for 7 days 5. expected to work 24 hour long shifts, have 4 hours off, work another 16, have 3hrs off and work another 22 and so forth, any objections or not working on your rdo simply mean you dont get anymore hours or are simply sacked 6. any issues beyond your control you are screamed and yelled at by management with the excuse "its in your name so why did you let it happen" in fact the words are alot more harsher than that 7. you are just a number to them, they dont give a flying piece of dog poo about you 8. advancement is all nepotistic and "who ya know and get on with" and "licking the bosses boots" rather than based on effort
