"I have worked with my current company for a little over 3 years. I help manage the Safety department of 22 Facilities in the East. I have trained multiple Safety Managers over the years. I have also trained multiple employees over the years on the OSHA 10 HR and 30 HR courses. I have been through multiple OSHA site visits and have has success in all of them. Working at my current company has been a great experience. I am able to work with many different people and with that make new friends."

"I have worked with GEO for over 2 years. As per usual with large companies, they are slow to fix things and are disorganized. However, they are much more efficient than the State or Feds. Their IS security is one of the lowest that I have seen. Their infrastructure is shoddy and new facility equipment is bought without much thought. At the facility level, the environment is very friendly towards MIS if you have a good team despite the onerous workloads."
