Security Officer - Birmingham, AL; operations

Overview

DSI believes that success is bred in the recruiting, selection, supervision, and training of each and every employee. Believing in the need for ongoing and perpetual training helps to set DSI apart from its competitors. Many companies give testimonials about their commitment to customer service and employee satisfaction but few deliver on that promise. That is where the DSI motto, “DWYSYWD", comes into the picture.

Simply stated, DSI strives to “DO WHAT YOU SAY YOU WILL DO”. The staff at DSI believes that if we understand the culture and mindset of our customers then we can more easily create a unique service solution to reflect it. DSI strives to create a work experience for our employees reflecting the work culture, principles, and values of our clients as well as of DSI, and based upon this, we screen employees for skills, philosophies, and attributes that reflect both.

In doing so, DSI believes DSI delivers employees and service mutually beneficial to everyone.
