This works well in the company

The education and training are good and you can tell that the trainers know what they are talking about. Some supervisors undoubtedly have a huge amount of expertise.

This could be improved

I would not recommend this company. The working atmosphere needs a lot of improvement and really drags you down. You can't talk about social competence in higher positions. Everything is demanded, nothing comes back and if you want something yourself, you are given the feeling that you are troublesome or impertinent. Suggestions for improvement are not taken seriously, even though they are long overdue. The fact that employees come and go all the time and sometimes switch to the competition says it all... The remuneration is also a case in itself... Supplements such as hazard pay (OD, security), night pay, Sunday and holiday pay are a joke. Also, that the expenses were not adjusted with the rising gasoline prices is weak, such additional costs should not bear the employee.

For a temporary employment or a temporary employment without dependence (Studiom etc.), quite ok.

This could be improved

There is a lot of potential in leadership and social competence.

This works well in the company

Thanks to the high fluctuation rate, career opportunities regularly arise.

This could be improved

At first glance at the administrative, management and executive levels; I see the greatest potential in communication, social and action skills.

This works well in the company

When I was over 50, I was dismissed from my old employer after many years of service. A colleague worked for Securitas and gave me the idea. At the beginning I couldn't imagine what kind of work I would have to do there, but I dared to take the step and didn't regret it.

This could be improved

You don't know enough what Securitas does at all, you would have to carry that more to the outside. Internally, it is not quite clear what development opportunities there are. Higher wages for older beginners would be desirable

This works well in the company

Had a lot of variety and very good team spirit. Unfortunately I often have to step in at short notice because of my sick colleagues but I also have some free days for my hobbies.

This could be improved

Employees who nag and make the mood bad sooner out. It has people who don't want to work, they should go somewhere else.

Armed object protection

Former employee

The training was very good, but the rest was shit bad working hours inappropriate pay for so much responsibility at the gun. I wouldn't do that again. But I got to meet a lot of new colleagues.

Nothing for weak nerves

Former employee

07 April 2018

It is only demanded until the employee falls over and if someone says something to the higher position this is taken seriously in front of the employee but never implemented even if you are totally exhausted, nothing is done. Shift bonuses are a joke and the annual working time should only be achieved if they want to. better in hourly pay remain the only good, but if you work too much you will eventually be replaced by someone who works less. not worth a star here.

Poor working climate and poor pay....

Former employee

14 March 2018

is really what the Lord writes above. And the owner family Spreng is one of the richest families in Switzerland (among the top 300 richest in Switzerland). I can only smile about HR's answer "We take matters seriously and look for opportunities together". Managers are looking to get their bonus, and that's all. That so many people come and go, that says everything anyway!

Thank you for your comment, I can only tell you that Securitas AG is the largest security service provider in Switzerland. The employees perform professional security tasks around the clock and the customers are very satisfied with our services. Greetings

Poor working climate, poor pay, etc...

Current employee

05 March 2018

Remuneration, at least for a permanent position, is worse than bad. You perform the maximum of the statutory annual working time allowed and earn the minimum of the minimum prescribed by the CLA. Specializations are compensated more than average. Shift bonuses are also absent. It creates a climate of demands without giving. A lot of promises are made, and then they are postponed again and again. Due to these and other points a very high personnel change constantly.

Employer comment

08 March 2018

We hire lateral entrants from all areas and offer new career opportunities for people who want to establish themselves in a new, exciting field. We take over the training and further education of our employees and offer a fair wage for it; punctually every month. We take your concerns seriously and look for opportunities together.
