Pros
Health insurance, training, uniforms provided, some good coworkers.
Cons
Disorganized agency. They don’t pay you, they make you incur expenses and Do Not reimburse you. If you’re a female all they want you to do is pat down passengers ALL day don’t expect a fair rotation when there’s just 2 females on the floor. You don’t even get chances to be on the X-ray at ALL!! Overtime is FORCED! You are forced to work up to 14 hours daily. Management and Supervisors belittle you and everything you do is never enough. You ALWAYS get sent out to different terminals even though you selected on your bid to remain at a certain terminal. The people you will be working with are there to make your life miserable. Especially the females. It’s like high school all over again. There is no help whatsoever with documentation and getting help with issues, you always get the run around from Management. They lose paperwork, they input wrong dates, they love to give you a hard time and take no responsibility for their actions. Good luck in getting anything fixed, corrected or paid. Schedules are bad. Break rooms for officers, especially for Delta terminal are small and there is no space or enough lockers for all officers. You run the chance of something being stolen while you’re on the floor. Policies change every minute. One day you will be told to do things one way and the next day you will be screamed at and be told to screen people differently. Their system is so inconsistent and inefficient. Females I warn you. You will see your male coworkers sitting all day and YOU will be forced to stand all day. And forget about breaks, forget about eating. You don’t eat until it’s 6 hours past lunch time, they don’t care about you. If you’re a female they close the whole lane in order for you to go to the bathroom and that’s IF they let you go.
