Total Care Security Employee Reviews

i've worked in the security industry for over 15 yrs and found TCS to be fair and pay every 14 days. TCS has a high standard and i only heard of guards being sacked if they were asleep or messed TCS around with their shifts

Pros

Steady Work

Cons

Working away from home

Great company

Security Officer/Door Supervisor (Current Employee) - London - 6 September 2022

Good company to work with. Can recommend to anyone. Pay is fair but some people spend more on travel than others which is not reallyfair. If mileage can be paid,that will be fair on people that travel everyday to work. But in all,TCS is a good place to be. The ops team are fantastic. Ready to help you out.

Very satisfactory

Security Consultant (Current Employee) - Barking - 22 May 2020

The directors are very experienced in all aspects of the industry and have knowledge in most sectors. They currently specialise in utilities, rail, national infrastructure projects and large scale housing/building works. However, other types of contracts are also undertaken, so a flexible ethic is required, both in location and hours of work. The hourly rate is really competative and the best thing, is that they pay weekly & ALWAYS on time !

Contract Security work

Security Consultant (Former Employee) - UK - various sites - 13 October 2017

I picked up contract work securing large Infrastructure project. Management was fair and well organised, deploying dozens of staff to remote sites every night. Hardest part of the job was doing some of the compressed shifts - several night and day shifts with only minimal breaks between them. Exhausting. The best part of the job was the other staff who were good experienced ex-military personnel.

Pros

stable work

Cons

many overnight shifts

Sly Employers

Administrator (Former Employee) - Newark - 4 January 2017

I worked at the company and saw them string employees along that they did not like until they could find a replacement and then they would just drop people without a second thought. In my short time there I had never seen such a turnover of staff or difficulty to get anyone to fill a role. Pay is low, no appreciate for work give and poor management inability to deal with problems fairly. Literally one of the worst places I have worked, they recently screwed over the Operations team and keeping one on when telling the rest they were all being let go. Do not work for or deal with this company.

Pros

Weekly pay

Cons

UK wide Guarding of National Grid assets

Security Officer (Former Employee) - UK - 28 September 2015

We were employed on a self employed basis having to travel and find your own accommodation for your area of work which would be submitted to you by txt on a Friday for you to organize and start work on the Monday morning. Although it gave you personal flexibility in how you organized your life it provided no security for a small hourly rate with no constructive feed back or management in put.

Pros

Flexibility

Cons

Un supported travel/accomodation
