Our former employee (who we will refer to as John for his privacy) left BPS Security for the hope of making $30/hour. Now we pride ourselves in paying our guards liveable wages, but it is important to understand that each guard will earn a salary that matches their skill level. At this point in time $30/hour was not John’s level.
The security company that he went to was the subcontractor to another company, Signal 88. After a few jobs, Firebase Security “went out of business”, pocketed over $90,000 and did not pay his guards.
We will not be surprised if, within a few months, Firebase Security opens another security company under a different name.
