Their parent company is Tyco...hello!!!!!! I worked for them for almost a year as a customer service specialist in a local office...all the sales managers, sales reps and installers are horribly corrupt (well not all just about 10% of an office of 100 were ok) they falsify contracts, they close out jobs prebilling customers in order to hit their month end quotas (managers make bonuses) therefore your system is not installed yet but you are billed some times multiple times. They make it out like a once in a while fluke when it happens to them but it happens to many customers....it really is purposely done to hit quotas and then fixed after and then done the next month and so on so it just rotates...isn't that unfair to stockholders to have a false financial forecast given???? I did not buy company stock although I could have....new federal guidelines do not seem to work since most offices audit themselves...I for one will choose brinks for my alarm...anyone have good or bad experiences?

Oh and I complained numeroust times to my manager and branch manager and was told not to worry about it because it did not affect my pay...I complained to the corporate office and then ombudsman and never heard from them...I just packed up my office and never went back.

That is the problem with big corp. like Tyco, Enron, MCI they are so good at moving money, falsifying documents and the big wigs really do not care about the employees nor the customers...I was really good at what I did and loved by my customers, but I just not could not fix the BIG problem.

yes Steven I did ask a question (just a little small minded to see)...nope worked for ADT and think people should know the God honest truth..since you are so defensive you must be one of the crooked sales people...the ones who bribe managers for leads and installers for free equipment to make a sale

i heard some things a while back but didn't think much of it being that they are such a big company. hmmm.
falsifying figures to make the numbers work for any company is not right. i'll definetly bypass them

All I know is the BTK Killer worked for a security company. I think it was ADT. He used his knowledge of security systems to get into some victims homes.

I think you own stock in Brinks.
BTW, you didn't ask a question in that rant.
