The GEO Group Compensation Employee Reviews

What is the best part about your compensation package?

The importance of giving employees time off to rejuvenate is the best part of the compensation package.

I llike the time off and pay rate

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 9 days ago

The medical, dental, and prescription coverage.

Review from Finance Dept · Posted 9 days ago

My pay is very good....I am very pleased

Review from Product Dept · Posted 10 days ago

The Paid holidays feels like a bonus

Review from Customer Support Dept · Posted 11 days ago

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

I feel undervalued because my compensation does not reflect the long hours, mandatory overtime, and challenging work environment. Higher base pay, fair overtime compensation, and additional incentives would make me feel more fairly compensated.

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 4 days ago

Extra money for having Bachelor's degree in the field. You work because the education is needed to better work with the inmates.

Review from Legal Dept · Posted 5 days ago

better pay and better scheduling. why am I on call on my off days? With my schedule like that I'm unable to go out of town or do anything unless it's close to the job, that doesn't make sense to me? Also training and staff meetings always seem to fall on my off days. we need our time off

Review from Customer Support Dept · Posted 6 days ago

Yes, I feel undervalued. Tangible tokens of appreciation and or a pay rate increase.

Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 9 days ago

higher salary and remote work options

Review from IT Dept · Posted 9 days ago

As security we should be able to get paid more since we hardly get a day off

Review from Legal Dept · Posted 9 days ago

I am a CPS, but I have been a lot of case management which I love supporting my team. I just want acknowledgement of the work I do. I run groups, set up all social security appointment interviews, CRR, housing, and prep all resident in preparation for interview assessment.

Review from Executive Dept · Posted 11 days ago

If GEO wants to attract and retain high quality employee's who will make their position a career and not a temporary stopping point, the pay should commensurate with the cost of living.

Review from Customer Success Dept

Some type of bonus pay or hazard pay on a quarterly basis.

Review from Communications Dept

I feel that I should at least get hazard pay for being inside a controlled enviorment.

Review from Operations Dept

I feel undervalued due to a toxic work environment, lack of communication within department, hostile behavior with intentional incorrect name references, unpleasant attitudes towards employees and unappreciative of work efforts. I expect a higher compensation for my skill set/ progress with inmate

Review from Operations Dept

Better benefits leas hours and following policies

Review from Operations Dept

Higher pay for kitchen employees

Review from Operations Dept

Handling the amount of volume in the mail room, including the different personalities of the detainees mail room get's daily.

Review from Admin Dept

I am concerned about the balance between pay, workload, and responsibility in my role. W/only three days of training and situations where nurses are left alone, it can feel overwhelming and potentially unsafe. I believe additional training and better staffing support would help ensure quality care

Review from Product Dept

Part timers should receive benefits and equal pay

Review from Operations Dept

All other human resource positions in every company in Southern California pay above 30.00 per hour to start. Geo is considerably less at 25.00. Making the health and welfare benefit the only reason to take the job. In order to have a salary to live on.

Review from HR Dept

Over worked, too much work to combine in 8 hours. Would like corporate to consider 4 10s like we used to have

Review from Admin Dept

The more I learn about the job the more is being added to it. I do feel the pay was fair originally but now that so much more is being added it does feel like 18 per hour or 19 per hour would be more fair.

Review from Customer Success Dept

More pay for all the work that a person does would be nice. We are expected to do a job but also do other positions at the same time with no difference in pay.
