Pros
The major pro about Guardian Alarm is the fact all the employees are great. They do an amazing job engaging employees with things like a company picnic and team days.
Cons
In 2017 the company was purchased by private equity and while it was great the first 10 months it started to go downhill. Employees are lucky to get a 2% raise and bonuses are a joke. The turn over is crazy high and unfortunately management does not listen to what the employees are saying. They have a lot of brilliant minds who are constantly told their plan to help them grow is not worth it or it is not a problem Guardian needs to focus on. Since being purchased by Private Equity, there have been a parade of consultants brought in to review the company and the CEO, CFO, VP of IT, and VP of Customer Service have all been let go. The company has been inflated with new directors that only work 4 days a week since they live in other states and travel into the location. When it comes to promotions, they are non existent and many times employees who are qualified to do the job have to train their new manager how to do the job at hand. You can try to reach out to the Recruiter but he never will give you the time of day. With that being said, HR is non-existent and is rarely in the building, which is unfortunate since the organization is on life support and HR does not support the organization at all, the one advocate we had left is no longer at Guardian and getting things done now is impossible. There are two people who try very hard and are excellent but they are overworked and under appreciated.
