Good place to work but poor management
Security Officer (Former Employee) - Manchester - 28 June 2021
Indeed featured review
The most useful review selected by IndeedI loved working for SecuriGroup, I was tupe’d over from another company and I was happy about it. Then I met the area manager for the north. A total joke of a human being and a waste of time.If you’re living in Manchester or the surrounding areas, avoid SecuriGroup, not because of the company but the manager.
Pros
Paid on time
Cons
Poor management

Dont apply
Security Officer (Current Employee) - Glasgow - 1 July 2021
The majority of staff is on zero hour contracts and quite a few on minimum wage which leads to no future, no moral, shifts change last minute if you don't agree you get no shifts. The CEO should speak to staff on the ground to find out what is actually going on. They also have to many managers.Area Supervisors are non existent. Just all round a horrible company to work for.I would
Pros
None
Cons
Long hours

Not a bad place to work but improvementsare needed
Security Officer (Former Employee) - Glasgow, Glasgow - 19 January 2021
The workplace is not bad, as the work was frequentBut the pay was not the best and some of the supervisors they hire are just idiots who are purposely looking to catch people sleeping even when they are not,The company could do better with progression routes and not hire everyone and anyone, hence why many people in the company are out of work and when they try to fix that they affect other guards full time rotas to make up for their stupid mistake.
Pros
If u wana sit with your baws oot then this is a good job
Cons
Long hours, no contract

Bog standard security roles and pay, Head office roles, good starter position to get experience
Mobile Supervisor/Compliance Officer (Former Employee) - Glasgow - 6 January 2021
Worked in multiple roles. As a security guard Door Supervisor. Bog standard pay and no different to any other security company. Is cultures, what it is, in the current Zero Hours. a security role is a security.I worked mostly in head office. Which was good and bad, my department managers where excellent, can not praise them any higher, but not all departments had the same, it really depends on who is your manager, I worked in compliance and was excellent, I would say most departments where ran well and fairly. Management give staff responsibility and develop you. If you do well and stick it out with the company you can move forward. However most HO roles requires degrees, yet only pay slightly over NMW, only suitable for young graduates to get experience before moving on, to bigger better things.
Pros
Good management mostly
Cons
Poor pay, zero hours contracts

Don't give them your time!
Security Officer (Current Employee) - Leeds - 16 October 2020
I worked for this company for 3 months, in that time I had no support, no training, and was expected to be an expert in my role immediately. The contract says they are not obligated to give you a wage increase except for the legal requirement to maintain the national minimum wage. This, their overall attitude, and zero support structure, should indicate to you how little they will care for you. Go work for someone who will respect you, treat you as a person and not a number, and earn a wage that is fair for your role.I came down with Covid symptoms, and called 119 while on shift, they told me I had to isolate. I organised everything through the night shift control, and was approved to leave shift and head home to isolate. During my isolation, not once did the management get in contact with me or check if I was okay. This just shows to me they literally don't care if you're dead or dying, as long as they have someone on site doing the job, nothing else matters. As Security we have to pay for our badges every 3 years, and yet these joke companies believe minimum wage is adequate. We deserve more than minimum (ESPECIALLY in these times of an international pandemic) and should be paid more since we have the training, qualifications, and responsibility on our shoulderd to maintain a safe and customer friendly environment.Do NOT work here.
Pros
The walk to work helped me lose weight
Cons
0 support, joke wage, a lying manager, and no respect given to workers

Poor Management
Area Relief Officer (Current Employee) - London South East, Greater London - 2 October 2020
Branch managment not speaking with Area managers, making poor decision in favour of returns not realising the impact on sites or the moral of security officers.Don't trust anyone in Management. Very sneaky, untrustworthy and a culture of lies & unfairness.
Pros
Non

SGL is great in all ways
Part Time Steward (Current Employee) - Aberdeen, Aberdeen City - 5 September 2020
I love working with the SGL. I joined them in 2019 as a steward on match days. I also worked with them on the Taxi ranks on Friday's and Saturday's.It was really a great privilege for me working with the SGL. I hope when the lock down and this virus becomes a thing of the past. Everything will come back to normal.

Avoid at all costs
Security Guard (Former Employee) - West Lothian - 13 August 2020
Worked with securigroup for a year until i found something else and all i can say is it wasn't worth it! Pay is terrible put on 12hour nightshifts for minimum wage and harassed if i missed any check calls and not in a "we want to make sure you're alright way" in a threatening "you will be sacked" way and control are a bunch of c***s happy to stab you in the back. Management hide behind texts it's a struggle to get hold of them unless they like you.
Pros
None
Cons
Wrong pay, ignored by management, lies by management, guards have no clue what the word equality means, some guards stealing or just going home during shifts, treated like a number not allowed a social life.
