Securitas - Operations manager is a liar

I have been working for Securitas in Allentown PA for just over 4 months. When I was hired, the HR Manager was very nice and upfront with me on the fact that I would be a floater until a permenant position could be found for me. Well, the Operations Manager Charlie Harwick spoke with us at that Introduction - he started telling us how he had rules that we had to follow or we would be fired. How the new male officers had to be clean shaven. How you couldn't miss work at all in the first 95 days of employment or you would be fired. He even handed out a set of papers that clearly contraidicts what is in the employee handbook! When I went to my first site - the other officers had beards - even the supervisor! Other officers at the first site told me how horrible it was to be working for Charlie Harwick. I was warned that he would screw me over in scheduling and shore enough, in the next week it happened. I was called by Harwick and told to go to a new site, where I would receive 4 hours of training. The site supervisor at my first site had already told me that I was to be working for him - that I was on the schedule for the next two weeks. I didn't know who to believe. I went to the new site and found out that I wasn't going to get any training - but to be left at the site all alone for the next 8 hours. Then the site supervisor from my first site called me the next day and yelled at me for not showing up at his site. When I told him that I was called by Harwick to go to another site, he told me that I shouldn't have listened to that man. He said that I should have called him to double check the schedules. Who are we suppose to listen to? How can the so called Operations manager be so incompentent!? All the officers at the site tell me about how Harick can't remember when he calls officers and when he doesn't. Officers have been fired because of his screw ups. he blames them for not listening to him. I am looking for another job or hoping for a permeanent assignment where harwick doesn't do the scheduling.

That's SO crazy.. My friend worked for the same company at 1500 Market St i Philadelphia. They lost the site and she was out of a job for 3 months. she had the chance to work for the other security company that took over. She decided to say with Securitas. And that was a mistake.. Big time>>> When they found a site for her, she end up getting put off the site.. Guess for what? Smoking a Newport... Which was crazy cuz her site manager give her a light... Next thing you know shes back on unemployment under a new account manger, cuz the old account manager said she rat him out.. They treat there employee like trash... so I would get out now before they get you too.
