Profiler/ Security Agent (Current Employee) - Heathrow Airport - 12 November 2022

I would recommend this job to anyone looking for their first job at Heathrow Airport. This is because it’s a easy way for anyone to get a Blue Heathrow ID and gain Customer service experience.

Slow and draining

Support (Current Employee) - London - 1 August 2022

Would not recommend ICTS to a friend. Furloughed most people during the pandemic and made the rest of us work double. No clear direction of the company

Nice company name

Airport Security Agent (Former Employee) - Bristol - 12 July 2022

This job will lead you to harm yourself due to the early hours starting 1am 2am, also about the wages you get it 15 days in delay after a very stressful month. Prepare yourself to deal with 3 or 4 thousand angry passengers per day. Working environment it's similar like a very busy kitchen in a crowded restaurant with supervisors behind you, all the stuff work there maximum 3 months because they didn't read reviews of ICTS management before accepting the job.I can't recommend it to any body.

Treated awfully

Security Agent (Former Employee) - Bristol - 10 July 2022

I wouldn’t recommend this job at all. Pay is low considering the level of responsibility you have and the hours are awful, there’s no work life balance and management aren’t flexible at all. You work 6 on 3 off, 3 earlies (2-4am starts) and 3 lates (9am-12pm starts) and are expected to work 10+ hours, 1 break if you’re lucky and stay at night for any delays which happen pretty much every day. A lot of the colleagues are friendly but you also get the ones who spread rumours and gossip like they’re still in school. Company doesn’t care about the staff that have stayed with them then wonder why the turnover is extremely high. No reason to stay when you’re worked to your limit every day.The nature of the job itself is interesting and enjoyable but it’s not worth it.

Pros

Some colleagues are really nice, job nature is interesting

Cons

Long hours, no work life balance, unsociable hours, awful staff room conditions, low pay, management don’t care, administration don’t respond

Talk the talk..but that is it!

Security Guard (Former Employee) - South East - 27 May 2022

They talk a good game to get contacts, as soon as its given to them, you don't see them and they don't have any staff like they promised. If they do come in, its usually because they cant supply staff and they come in to cover, but just sit on their laptops not actually doing the work and let other guards run around doing twice the work. Basic leave entitlement, no sick pay, no benefits, just basic stuff from a very basic company. they expect you to stay on at the drop of a hat if they have no cover but don't offer extra money, just the standard rate. these companies need to understand that staff that are looked after and appreciate will go that extra mile. and when you have had enough and decide to leave, you get no exit interview no nothing, not even a little thank you for all your hard work...JUST AVOID!!

Decent working environment and clothing

Security Officer (Current Employee) - London - 20 May 2022

I’m happy with my job environment and decent clothing am given.Working in a seven star building comes with a huge responsibility but with clear defined roles am always meeting targets.The only mitigating factor is the wage. As inflation is on the rise, I urge management both building and ICTS to adhere to the plights of all security staff and adjust our wage upwards. Although the wage is not too bad but Napoleon will always ask for more.

Pros

Free laundry, tea

Cons

More reliable shifts

Peacefully

Security Officer (Current Employee) - Dunstable, Bedfordshire - 2 May 2022

Average per hour should be improved for Security Officers, and some rewards will be nice from time to time. Night shift average should increase.The uniforms should be updated or changed at all.

Better jobs at the airport and better paid

security officer (Former Employee) - Manchester Airport, Greater Manchester - 30 March 2022

Not a hard job but very much a if the supervisor likes you your in for a easy shift kind of company otherwise get used to being out in the rain a lot. Management constantly scrambling for contracts and dont seem to know or care whats happening on the shop floor. Dont expect any job security or to be kept on if your not white.
