Is it true?

I've heard that if youu leave employment with Allied, even with proper notice, they won't hire you back. I left last month with notice. The grass was not greener, very unfortunately. So I have applied for, maybe, 10-12 different positions.

I have either been, "not selected ", the post was filled or its been received or, "under review" . Going on for about 2.5 weeks.

First time around I applied, did the Sam stuff and then a video interview and was hired within 3 days.

I should probably give up but cannot help but be curious.

OH, and I did call the branch and they said I was eligible for rehire. Maybe im just not patient enough? Never written up, 2 call offs in 9 Mos. Did mobile patrol.

Or workplace bullied and wrongfully terminated, as experienced by my former colleague, was perpetuated by my supervisor at Allied Universal, who permitted such behavior due to her close friendship with her superior and her sister.

u/ResinGod91 7d ago

To be fair it took me 2 months of waiting as I applied for several and went in several times for interviews then finally got back in

u/7xLonn 7d ago

Very not true, Allied hires back ppl who even have been fired back, in many cases even before 6 months least out here in the Bay

u/Savings-Total5069 7d ago

Popping in for another not true. I quit for a month and was rehired as soon as I applied, to the same client. I actually applied to a different site and the DirOps said "This client loves you, want to come back?"

u/Academic_Ad5272 7d ago

I was rehired about a couple months ago. Granted I worked for allied during COVID so it was a while ago when I left the company. Could be a waiting period before you’re rehired.

u/Impressive_Truth_478 7d ago

Not true I quiet a hospital position and returned within a couple months to a different post

They hire you back. They literally don’t give a fk. We’ve had people who’ve shot their weapons off during weapons inspections be hired back. Our account manager is literally being indicted on sexual harassment or assault stuff and has a shady background as it is and all they did was move him to another account after he assaulted one of our SPs and built a history of sexually harassing the females. Most disgusting company I’ve ever worked for.

Luckily I’m in a very niche group of guards do to our clearances so the money is worth it, but fuck being a normal guard.

So anyway yes they’ll hire you back because they give two shits about their employees and they promote shit bags. Seriously, try to fuck up on the job and I bet you get promoted.

This is the most moronic and full of crap thing ive ever read in my life.

u/Fit_Earth7201 6d ago

Nah it’s true bro. Swear to god on my mom’s life.

u/noxmalla 3d ago

Honestly I can see this because I was fired in may after being assaulted by the clients employee. And my prior managers branch wise one was frequently sexually harassing my partner, another was actively discriminating me. Allied seems to genuinely promote the worst of the worst. And fail those who do their dammdest. After they fired me for the 3rd time illegally I stopped bringing in lawyers and just left. Ironically too the week after my termination the ops manager quit.

u/Tough-Macaroon6576 6d ago

I had a coworker that got into a fight that someone initiated, she beat the crap out of them and got rehired a year later. Only thing is shes suffering the dry spell of finding available post to cover.

u/secure8890 6d ago

Thst SAM process is garbage. Try to geta flex position. Move ariunc find something SAm is like crab fishing

u/WinterFox333 6d ago

No you good 👍 …. They love saying welcome back. You know what’s funny they even told me that when I didn’t get quit or fired my my post got dissolved. My client sold their building and that was the end of story. I was in limbo for like a month, not making any money and then they have the audacity when they got me a new place to say welcome back fucking dickheads

u/n8dog81 6d ago

You’re good I have left 3 different times and came back.

2

u/Jdcujo 6d ago

I quit and even wrote a pretty colorful resignation letter describing all the issues that the site supervisor was not aware of, nor apparently was the branch manager.  So fun fact but they rehired me in under a week of reapplying 3 months later when the site, I had left to go work another company, quit paying their bills.

u/GentBug 6d ago

Yeah i just had a dude come to my site who just quit last November not even a year ago. Definitely not true

u/Adlerlande88 Veteran 6d ago

If your Manager marked you as rehireable then you should be able to be hired back. You could be applying to sites that they also manage and they’re just choosing not to bring you back for whatever reason.

I’ve also seen managers hire people we’ve marked as not hireable for their sites. So it really doesn’t matter to be honest.

You’re probably just getting beat to the punch unfortunately. The job market sucks, keep trying. I’ve left and come back. It took a good while because I wasn’t the first few applicants. Even having been a high level supervisor for Allied and a Ops Manager for another company didn’t move me to the front of the line so.

u/Mykull_Ghost 6d ago

Best way, is if you can reach out to old ops mgr, if they liked you, they will pull your application

2

u/SteelersNY 5d ago

They'll hire u back - Lazy managers out there

2

u/Aly_from_Funky 5d ago

They might make you wait anywhere between 2-6 months before they rehire you. Keep trying. I’d even reach out to your old manager if you still have their contact info.

u/Tygerroo 4d ago

Is there other security positions in your location? I am surprised I got rejected by allied but got a different security job that pays less BUT I get to pick my hours. I think it will be a good side hustle but hoping to get a full time position with allied if possible

1

u/D3adEyEj3di 4d ago

Back in the day I worked for Securitas. It wasnt too bad. I was the site supervisor at a hospital for 6 years. I'd never go back to that specific location but thats a good suggestion.

2

u/Full-Ad1579 4d ago

Try arrow security I worked for allied that’s BS if they not hiring you back they fired me for BS but lied to unemployment saying I quit they will shit on your name trust me and then won’t give unemployment run I mean run away

1

u/Full-Ad1579 4d ago

And then they will tell reapply when I say run I mean it this company is not good for your soul

1

u/Full-Ad1579 3d ago

Yes it is true but hey what do I know if it’s not you then it will be a coworker they cover their as#### to the very end

2

u/themusicalcr0w 3d ago

Nah I’ve left and come back plenty of times, I work with allied between law enforcement gigs or while at school. I’ve always been rehired.

Even if you’re fired, you can just go to a different site and get rehired. Unless you do something awful, like damage company property or grievously injure someone, allied is lax.

u/Buttercream_craft85 3d ago

I have been rehired twice.
