Working at Scarsdale Security Systems

Plenty of work and a wide variety of skillsets utilized as a field technician. Several of the employees are industry experts with great talent and personalities.

"Work truck" is a KIA SOUL...which is NOT a work truck. Stagnation- went 3.5 years without a raise or review. Layoffs- Company had 2 layoffs during my 10 year span of employment with them. Executive team members are just plain obnoxious and care nothing for the employees. The employer withheld my vested 401k disbursement and denied me payment on it for almost 7 months until I threatened legal action. Most managers and supervisors are completely inept.

Leaving the company. This was one of the worst companies I have ever worked for, and I would not recommend ANYONE seek employment here.

Nothing. The COO that was in place while I was there was completely incompetent and lead the company down a path of decline. The CFO is pretentious and moody and always makes it seem like any conversation with him is a waste of his precious time. The CEO and owner is one of the most obnoxious and arrogant leaders I have ever had the displeasure of working for. Being in middle management , we had weekly meetings and he was so rude and offensive in those conference calls that on multiple occasions another employee called me after the call and apologized for the owners' rude behavior towards me. He asks for new ideas, then shoots them down and embarrasses you when you present your ideas and then uses those ideas months later and claims them as his own.

I would completely dismantle the executive team and instill a whole new leadership team. The service manager and Central Station Manager were two of the best leaders there. Everyone in upper management needs to go. And HR is only an afterthought, good luck trying to get 5their HR person on the phone or to respond to an inquiry. Before I left the company, I sent an email to HR to ask how much PTO I had remaining on the books, and it took them 2 and a half weeks to reply.

I updated my resume and sat down with the hiring manager.

It was below the national average for my trade and most other positions there were also underpaid.

There is plenty of diversity here and it is actually a bit over the top. They are so overly concerned with maintaining a "woke" agenda that they will write people up and even terminate people for some of the most borderline and insignificant infractions.

Not being there anymore.
