The other day I went to the DHS on East California and I was greeted by this tall Mexican guard and short white guard as well. They were so good at their job they need a raise ASAP no Rocky

Night shift security Thursday night at sportsvillage park is cool because he lets us stay in the park after closing. He kind of suspicious because he drives crazy with no headlights.

Transwest only favors the lazy,and unprofessional employees. Being a good employee,and doing your job isn’t for this company,Or HR department. They do not care about the safety of their employee’s. As their number 1 concern is the client,not the employees. It’s very hard to advance with this company. And scheduling that’s a whole different story. Let’s just say they have their “favorites.” One employee can have 3 write ups,while another employee can have zero write ups. So,they keep the person with 3 write ups,and fires the good employee. ALOT of favoritism in the HR department,and

This is the worst security company. If you live in an HOA they will harass the people that live in it instead of protect them

Working on the oilfields in Bakersfield Ca. NOT paid enough to drive around looking for oil leaks,and etc. there are so many dangerous hazards in the oilfields that are unpredictable. VERY little training in the oilfields,but yet expected to know everything about the wells,steam,and crevasse’s. $13-$14 an hour is HORRIBLE pay for the on going hazards,and the later in life health problems from the chemicals that are a constant problem. NOT SAFE!! UNDERPAID,UNPREDICTABLE,UNACCEPTABLE,And NOT APPRECIATED for Hardwork. 8-12 hr shifts in these very dangerous hazards. NAH man I’m GOOD.

They say they're willing to work with your school schedule and then turn around and say that they only need full time employees and let you go.

Trans West Security supervisor will not return my phone calls!
Seven Oaks HOA pays for Trans West Security for 24 hour patrols. Many cars in neighborhood broken into Monday night. Sad situation when you have 24 hour security and are a stones throw from BPD substation. Neighbors need to look out for each other. BPD will only file a report at best and Trans West Security does not change up route schedules so any gang of thieves with cell phones can easily avoid them.

The worst inept company I ever saw. I saw one guard stop an African American out offamily coming Big Lots, and and said they can not camp there. They are not homeless! They were on their way home. He even got rude with them. I honestly believe that woman was about to yank him out of that car and beat him down like he deserved. The same bunch stopped me in my truck one afternoon while my wife was shopping, and told me the same thing.Who in hell camps at 2 pm?

This is the worst place to work. They don’t care about the employees they care more about the clients and they have this site at Tejon that the management discriminate against Mexican and they don’t care for the security’s safety nor about the dozen of shoplifting that goes on there. They only want white people working for them and lazy people that don’t care about the shoplifters and vehicle break-in. I will not recommend people to apply for Transwest their HR people is also very rude.

Not a good company to work for. A lot of times supervisor doesn't come out to check on u, especially if ur new. The person working there already will train u, and no follow up is done.
