One review suggests that this company is an up-standing, credible business that treats clients and employees well. Having been inside the company for long enough to get sick, Firstline is an unethical, unprofessional,non-compliant corporate environment. I feel badly for those who were fooled by the owner's ""integrity"" and did not see the total lack of ethics that ran this company. Greed and power propelled you forward and the body count did not matter. The sales force, especially the DM's (District Managers) and DP's (Division Presidents) were given full reign, in most cases, without compliancy in the areas they were selling. They ignored trespassing and no solicitation rules, impersonated customers to activate accounts so they could be paid, and laughed at the attempts to bring them back in line. They had employed known felons and did not make any changes to that until caught. DOPL would have loved to get the truth about this group - along with the Labor Board and Firstline's abuse of the 1099 classification. They were very good at omitting certain truths so that potential customers believed they were contracting with ADT or GE directly. They also targeted the elderly and those in lower income areas that could ill afford this service but scare tactics by the ""Ad Rep"" in many cases convinced people that crime was so rampant in their area. they could be next! This group is the LAST company anyone should give their personal information to, let alone trust them to protect your home and loved ones. And not all their employee's or ""1099"" people were treated fairly or even honestly. People were fired in retribution after calling corporate about fraud or sexual harassment. There was substance abuse among many of the reps and some who were brought from another country were shafted completely. If the went bankrupt - they were headed that direction during the time I spent there - what did they expect? Karma visits everyone - even the young and rich!
Pros: they are out of the security business
Cons: they were ever licensed to enter people's home's and gain access to personal info
