Report
If you are BLACK DO NOT APPLY FOR THIS COMPANY! They hire people, give them a schedule and then lie after the fact and say different things was wrong only to hire a white crew! They are very rude and disgusting here! The owner: KENT JURNEY isn't someone you would want to work for. I wouldn't recommend this company to my worse enemy! The disrespectful level is very high and their not even a full security company.
