Pros

Decent work/life balance. Dealing with important life safety equipment - keeping people safe is a good feeling.

Cons

The job I interviewed and was hired for and the job I ended up performing seemed to be from two different worlds. It seemed to change every day and every change was for the worse. The atmosphere was really quiet - no one really talks to each other. If you do manage to get someone to talk for more than a minute, usually someone will come by and make a comment about "breaking up the party." The turnover rate also seemed to be very high - also be aware of a policy if you accept the position and you come from a staffing company YOU are required to repay them any staffing fee's (which can range in the $5-8,000 range) if you do not last a year. Whether you quit or get let go. Tread carefully.

Pros

The work atmosphere and culture at Keystone Fire is very team oriented.

Cons

Being as KFS is a growing company, there are occasionally some growing pains at times, which is to be expected. These are typically resolved in short order.

Pros

I have been with Keystone for over 3 years in the sales department. At times, I need to collaborate with various colleagues in order to do my job, and everyone is always willing to share their expertise when asked. My direct manager is clear with expectations, makes sure everything is on track and he provides guidance whenever needed. Our upper management strives to provide incentives for us to connect and feel like a family. Examples are: Employees appreciation awards, Company picnics, Chili cook-off, Spirit of Philadelphia Cruise (for all employees and guest), the list goes on. We have a Core values program in place company wide, detailing the high expectations we all strive to achieve and extend to our customers. I feel very proud to work for Keystone Fire Protection. The work we do is important, and I like knowing that what I do makes a difference in the world. I would recommend for those with the right "skill-set" and "desire", if you wish to be a part of a company like I described- definitely seek employment at Keystone Fire Protection.

Cons

The only con I have is with regards to process in relationship to my specific role in sales. I would like to see a more consistent, transparent communication with scheduling and completion of the work being done. This would be helpful as I always like to touch base with the client once a job is complete to make sure it was done to their satisfaction.
