Pros

Pay is the only pro and the pay is sub par for the chaos employees are subjected to.

Cons

Benefits are miserable, uniform is not functional, footwear is plastic. Recruiters push anyone into the program. Supervisors do not communicate with each other. Management is riddled with poisonous nepotism and zero ability to manage efficiently. Be prepared for austere conditions for 12 consecutive hours on your feet. Austere to mean exposure to frigid cold and blistering heat with unsuitable cold weather gear and air conditioning units that do not work in the summer. No consistency of schedule. Promises of a security clearance that you may not even get because the company sits on your paper work. They avoid paying bonuses by keeping you from getting the clearance they promise to provide. Senior supervisors and management attempt to intimidate guards who seek to change this abhorrent work climate. Training is insufficient and not related to the work place. Very limited options for upward mobility. Some coworkers are lazy, yet given privileges that they wind up abusing. Company focuses on a group punishment mentality. Never expressly defines what para-military means to the organization but boasts being para-military.

Pros

They advertise diversity. They'll hire anyone. Not necessarily a positive.

Cons

Inter-Con is a corporate shell game, where every spoke in the wagon wheel is responsible for a different facet of the business (hiring, training, payroll, etc.) and no one seems to know what they are doing. Every single employee I have worked with has had a pay discrepancy. Several co-workers were given insufficient quantities or ill-fitting elements of their uniform, and told to buy their own, if they didn't have enough. Several employees were charged for uniforms that were suppose to be free. Inter-Con has spent months refusing to meet with our union, (because they have been running roughshod over the tentative contractual agreement in place) Inter-Con constantly hires new people, to cover shifts of full-time employees, so say goodbye to any overtime. Employees are being penalized by an arbitrary star system, which is suppose to punish unreliable employees, not tarnish the record of employees using a personal day, for personal reasons. Employees have been told that their excuse for missing work was not good enough. Every facet of what we do is organized by apps, and on cell phones. Inter-Con seems to have no sense whatsoever about the tasks and duties of an employee in the automotive industry.
