Shadow Security

very unprofessional staff, especially the guy who treated so bad that poor girl on entrance last night in my aspect you can’t touch or push anyone without their permission so it’s totally a harassment

One of the security guards working at the Scotiabank Centre for the thunderbirds game on February 16 was extremely unprofessional. He just assumed I was unlawfully trying to consume alcohol (I am 18 years old) and told me he was going to keep an eye on me to make sure I wasn’t drinking. YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO MAKE THESE ASSUMPTIONS WITH NO CONCRETE EVIDENCE! His power tripping nonsense was very unnecessary. He just assumed my friend was illegally buying beer for me. I did not pay 30 dollars to be scrutinized by some security guy who thinks he’s a cop

Shadow has been the best event security company in Atlantic Canada for years.

Worst management and company i have ever seen

Have hired them for many of my shows in Halifax and they get the job done right every time. Very professional and knowledgeable when it's come to keeping us safe on stage. We will hire them again in a heart beat :)

worked for this place. the owner is great, but operations staff are horrible. there was no training at all and they constantly ripped me off between not paying for work completed and having shifts not be paid out when they were supposed to be. they pay almost everyone min wage and expect you to stand in the same location for hours on end without any kind of break.. they wont even let you go to the bathroom.if they treat their employees like this, imagine how they'll treat you.

I worked for these guys. Find another company to work for or hire for events. They hire anyone who moves and don’t provide any further training aside from the basics of ID checking. Their staff is extremely unprofessional and unqualified besides a few who only work “the big and important events”. At the NSLC I’ve seen them on their phones and when they work events they have people working who should not be working events as they don’t know how to handle situations.From a employee standpoint the operations staff don’t communicate with you and it’s impossible to schedule time off for doctors appointments and forget calling off if you’re sick, it won’t happen. They brag about “being able to choose your schedule” when they hire you, it’s a lie, half the time you don’t get what you apply for due to “seniority” and even if you do it’s not nearly enough for even part time hours. The higher ups aren’t progressive either, stuck in old ways and not interested in progressing the way things are done. Pay is also AWFUL having qualifications will get you a wonderful minimum wage or maybe a few cents above if they’re feeling generous. You could earn more working at McDonalds.In short. Don’t hire or apply here. It’s not enjoyable or rewarding.

Went to an establishment with shadow security.The communication between most the security personnel was really lacking and their tolerance towards nightlife patrons was taken from a personal emotional perspective and not from a safety standpoint.If you would like more information to look into this incident you can reply to this review.

I was assaulted one at the shoe by one of their bouncers. Was thrown to the ground and pinned down just because I asked to speak to a supervisor of the business. Some of their security guards seemed professional, but several of them including the one in question, are hot headed and quick to resort to using force for solving issues.
