RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at Showsec part-time for more than 3 years
Pros
Showsec is a good company to work for. You get to chose your own shifts and its great for earning extra income. They are very professional and transparent in the way things are done and I can say employees are treated well.
Cons
Its part time and there are a few months in the year where there is less work and therefore not suitable if this job is your only source of income.
Advice to Management
Non at the moment

Pros
Working in your own time at your own pace and able to book shifts whenever you like
Cons
Once shifts are booked you'll have to cancel 5 days in advance. If you do not you get a warning, and if you receive two warning your out of work. Although you are able to shift swap with other people.
