Pros

Our pay is good for what we do. I feel supported by Walden. The managerial folks that I have met (including during Phase 2 training) seem to be geared toward making the job easier for the employees and seem supportive of the employees.

Cons

Health Benefits... if Walden wants to attract employee who have not yet reached Medicare, they need to provide more affordable health insurance. I am fortunate to be able to obtain insurance via my retirement and that is expensive, but not nearly as expensive as through Walden. Stipend for parking/gas... downtown Denver is not really close to most places that CSO's live. Affordable parking is in unsafe areas and a good walk from the courthouses. The drive for many of us is long and through very busy downtown traffic and the interstate. I know that it has been a deciding factor for two CSO's who left for other jobs that were closer to their homes and had free parking.

Pros

From the start, I was """"over the moon"""" when I discovered Walden Culture valued our Officers over any client (within reason). Focus on Officer safety and more importantly, MORAL - over the money being paid to Walden; this illustrated to me that Walden is doing our industry correctly! As it should be; Setting the STANDARD! When I first came to walden I had a particular version of how the Security Industry operated. Walden showed me it could be so much better and, in my view, correct with integrity, honor, duty, and respect!

Cons

In my humble opinion, there needs to be a shake up with leadership, on the corporate level. Not being the """"knower of all things"""" of how a huge business should operate; from my stance various (managers/leaders) within the Human Resources, Information Technology, Learning & Development, and Benefits need to be HEAVILY evaluated. From my (lowly) perspective, I have interacted with multiple individuals under each of those respective departments that have expressed disappointment and/or distain with those that head said departments. Corporate is, and has been, getting WAY too """"top"""" heavy. This will only lead to toppling over later on... leading to a restructuring that already should have happened. Walden is expanding (AWESOME); with that: GREAT care needs to be considered within its management/leadership.
