Pros
If you are in sales, you have the ability to set your own schedule. I have found a lot of good people at ADT, especially those that have been with the company for a long time.
Cons
They (Tyco) are now attempting to micro-manage the entire workforce, with disastrous effects on productivity. The layers of management, the rediculous amounts of unneccesary paperwork, and a fear of speaking out, are choking any ability to improve the company from within. ADT uses Sarbanes Oxley and Six Sigma, but to such an effect that it is detrimental to production and morale. The local office have a revolving door mentality for their sales reps, so the turnover is very high.
