Quality Assurance Analyst | Auburn, WA | Nov 26, 2019
They don't care about you.
They will work you to the bone with terrible pay. Very quick turn over rate because no one wants to work for them. You will be in your car driving all over with little compensation for it, job sites are spread all over.

Arrange and set up complete operations s for large events. Award shows, concerts, sporting events, In contact with operations for large events,. Award Show, concerts, sporting events, large businesses, In contact with CEO'S, cedebrities, professional sports figures. Learned to have patience, That it truly is a team effort, an the importance of realizing that everyone is different and you must deal with everyone that way. Coordinating all the many parts of a large event takes much planning. The most enjoyable part of everything is to see it come to fruision
Proswhen everyone is on time and completes their job to the best of their ability
ConsNothing goes right and you still must perservere

Logistics Supervisor | Georgia | Mar 26, 2019
Lots of hours and low pay
CSC was generally a good work experience. The office felt like family and I can genuinely say that I grew to appreciate my team. I'm even still friends with some of them. Our manager was an incredible human being whom i still admire. The difficult parts were the long hours and low pay. I was in a management position making $30k/year working a minimum of 60 hours during high season. No benefits were offered to me. We didn't even have direct deposit! The corporate office on the west coast seems really disconnected with the needs of the event staff. I probably wouldn't work there again but am really grateful for the friends I made and the experience I got.
ProsFree attendance to football games, concerts, etc
ConsLong hours, low pay

Not a good company.
This is not a good company to work for. They’re extremely unprofessional and unorganized. Most of the managers show favoritism between employees. I would not recommend!

Not worth the time
Never really enjoyed working for this company. Promises and expectations were never met and management could care less about its employees. The pay was also extremely horrible for the amount of work that most employees performed.
ConsBad management

Fun and Productive Company to work for
Csc is a good company to work for full time and Part time/sesonal. They have contracts at different venues in his van to travel with them while meeting diverse customers . It also helps you when learning customer service experience wow securing the building from possible threats of people with weapons
ProsYou get to travel to other venues
ConsSome years had poor Management and Supervisors

Is csc a security company or an event company Do u have too have a security lic ? Can I just work as event person ?
Asked Dec 26, 2016
Let's be clear. We are an event security staffing company. We do not put on events. Our staff is responsible for things such as bag check, walk through metal detectors, hand held metal detectors, pat downs, crowd management, ticket scanning, guest services as related to the event they are attending. Some states require you to be licensed, others do not. Training is an ongoing thing. Our jobs are a lot of fun, but it is a job.
Answered Dec 12, 2019
You don't have to have a guard card, you can work as event staff only if you want

How do you feel about the future of Contemporary Services Corporation?
Asked Sep 26, 2016
I feel pretty positive. They get a lot of venues and it beats flipping burgers.
Answered Aug 26, 2018
The pay is a disgrace for standing for so long, it is very hard on your legs and feet. You can have years of experience and knowledge in the law enforcement field and they make kids supervisors, lots of favoritism, not enough hrs or money for the perfection they want from their employees. If you would pay your employees well, and hire different type of people you would be way more successful. I guess you get what you pay for !!!
Answered Jun 24, 2018
Does the company transport employees to the events?
Asked Mar 22, 2016
How long after yu interview u start to work how many interviews u have to get the job
Answered Sep 17, 2018
Sometimes there will be a shuttle between the parking area and the sign-in area. If there is, be sure to come early enough to get a shuttle that will get you to sign-in on time.
