Pros

Able to resign from here.

Cons

Management, Non Stop Working, Forced to Take OT even on rest day. No work-life balance. Team leader does Blaming game everyday. Higher-up does not hear you out until things happen. No proper training provided. You need to be an ULTRA QUICK Learner to know your work process.

MIS Help Desk

Pros

Good Hours, 8:30-5:30pm. Most of the employees are very friendly. Potential to learn lots of areas of IT.

Cons

IT Managers keep quitting. Shameful arrogant behavior and feuding between the two men who both want the job and who openly criticize each other in front of the other employees. Office gossip was very heavy about how the IT department can't keep any employees do to how uncomfortable the feuding is and how poor the training is. The IT department is unorganized and unregulated. There is no proper tracking of computers, laptops, or other office equipment or computer accessories. User account aren't set up the right way through group policies and nobody seems to really care. No proper storage space for computers and computer equipment. Loose and improperly installed cables on the server and throughout the office and warehouse. They have over 200 employees and they don't even use a ticketing system for the IT Help Desk or enter new employees into Active Directory user groups. When a good idea is suggested or implemented, higher-ups with no tech background ignore them or change them back to old ways that are inefficient. IT department not informed of new employees ahead of time causing the new employee to show up without a workstation set up. Vacant desk are left dirty and/or trashed with all the old stuff left over from previous employees. The new employee gets a mess or they just get a desk with "nothing" on it. And, there is no organized training or reference materials for self-study.

Pros

Colleagues were great! I will really miss these guys. We created a culture that got us through the rough days of working at Above Security.

Cons

This is very messed up. I worked at Above Security/Seccuris for many years. I believed the promise that things would grow and that we all had bright futures there. Suddenly without warning we were all let go. The CEO of the company is a cruel human being. He's fired people on vacation. He came in right after buying Seccuris and began threatening people. He was on a drunken power trip. That was just the Seccuris side too. He was scared of letting too many people took across the border. He was letting the office hire people while he knew this was going to be done. In the Montreal offices he was verbally abusing people there. They were losing people as quickly as Winnipeg. In the aftermath of this crisis. Days later there has been no corporate email out to their paying customers about not receiving the services. All requests and work are just sitting there waiting to be answered. This CEO really knows how to not professionally carry himself! Above Security is most likely bankrupt. Do not do business with them. Do not work for them. Do not hire this CEO when he's done throwing aside his company.
