Great Place to work,-had some good times and gained lots of experience.
Operations Crew Chief (Former Employee), North Hollywood –
Pros: this company retrains its employees, has good benefits and chances for advancement.
Cons: missed many lunch breaks.
I have nothring but good things to say about Dunbar and its management. Quite a bit of time has passed since I worked there. Its a real pity that there were some losses but I am happy to see that they are still making a strong input on the market in the field of Armored Car Services. Not quite sure if some of my old co-workers are still with the company – more...  but for those who are still there, I'd like to wish them well and to say "job well done" just for still being with them for all this time. For those who have chosen to move on, I do hope that they too are doing well wether or not they have chosen to remain in the same field.
I must say that one of the toughest parts of this job is having to remain on schedule as there are times that you would have clients that would expect you to remain at their business for no matter how long it takes even though doing so could jeopardize ones safety. This position, believe it or not does help one to develope their skills in the area of customer service.
The most enjoyable part is having to reach the end of a typical work day and being able to safely return home to your family which is a plus as there have been many in the past that were not as lucky. This once again proves that if you follow the guidelines that have been set out for your safety and protection, then there would be no problem.
This is a company with sound values, has had many challenges,and that will be around for a very long time to come..... – less

Good Job, but Unsatisfying Long Term
Driver/Guard, Vault Clerk (Current Employee), Kansas City, MO –
If you are looking for a job, it is a good place to work. If you are looking for a career, keep looking.

Not a career to die for
Messenger/ATM tech/Driver (Former Employee), Minneapolis, MN –
Pros: single people, military reserve, future cops
Cons: penny wage, low raise
the job was fun for the average single guy, who could brag about carrying a gun, or those in military reserve or going to school for law enforcements. But for the family man it's a poor choice to risk your life for a penny wage with no room for advancement or high rise, even though if you bend over for the company they'll give you no more then .20 raise.

Driving No life
Driver Guard (Current Employee), York –
Pros: paid lunch 30 mins, nice employees
Cons: long hours, no pay, risky job
You will be on the road for like 12 hours a day. or you will only have 3 hour work days so you never know. I work all most 70 hours a week so I have no free time. That the only way i can pay for my school loans and my car.

Work a lot pay minimal safety a second not primary concern.
Driver, Guard (Former Employee), New York, NY –
Pros: not much. easy work.
Cons: not a good place to work, not a good job for advancement, no where job.
They cut hours one day to over work you another. Pay is on the low end of the scale. They hire people who don't know what they are doing and not alert, example carrying an umbrella in the rain. Management does not upkeep vehicles in good conditions. Bonuses are reduced for everyone when accidents happen.
