Ryan Lemmer is a thief and is being investigated. Stay away from this company, doesnt provide service and doesnt pay his staff.

He is a known scam artist who runs businesses to the ground. Please be careful.Many other repuable security companies to look to. if you want to get scammed then call Ryan lemmer, he knows how to do that well. Hopefully this will be the last time!

Many other complaints from other clients/mangement/staff.

Operates in CT,MA and VA.

Wow!!! The worst *** security company I have ever worked for in my entire life.

I'm so happy I was the first one to actually leave a legit and truthful review because the first one is a lie. To begin, employees are seen as pieces of ***. Second, I was a patrol driver last year and it was good at first but then the perverted manager hired a female to take my hours but I wasn't even mad though cause the vehicle broke down three times and one of the times I was in front of another security vehicle. How embarrassing is that?

Thank goodness I left to a better company that offers benefits and actually appreciates my work with yearly raises. My cousin started with the company a little after I left and she told me all the stories of how the manager would hire females based off looks and not experience. She was only with the company for two weeks after the manager tried hitting on her. The company is still *** to work for and I advise anyone that is looking for a security job to find something better..

By the way there is no set schedule and the hours change all the time. The manager would always tell me that the reason for not having a set schedule, being disrespected and not getting paid a certain way is because of the CEO's (as he stated) is a greedy, selfish ***... By the way, I just googled him and he's the same guy that left the first review. How pathetic!

Instead of going online and lying to the public Ryan, you should learn how to be a good CEO and actually learn to care for your employees. You take advantage of employees that actually struggle by using termination as a threat. Private security? More like public embarrassment.

Just recently I was at Denny's in Hartford and saw the vehicle (working) or whatever the *** they were doing cause the lights weren't even on.

Some high quality service you provide there buddy, how professional. To conclude I suggest everyone to run far away from Signal 88 Security.

Ryan lemmer and all of his "management" management are a joke. They use and abuse there employees.

They put them in unsafe locations and when officers state it is unsafe they don't care. Not to mention at least in ct they go through managers constantly. The old owner actually cared about his employees. There armed division is a joke as the officer are unable to do anything under Lemmer.

His officers are also the furthest thing from a real security officer. I was able to walk into a site that they were "searching" for weapons with 2 pocket knifes, nail clippers, and two firearms with 3 mags of ammo. This was done with permission from the owner of the establishment. He also refuses to let people go on an ethical basis.

He will suspend you for 2 weeks then bring u in for a "meeting" and terminate you. If you want to work for them or use them for services I would run far away.

Are you aware Signal 88 is a franchise company and you can not judge Signal 88 for the actions of a few bad ones.

Guest

I couldn't agree more. He outright abuses his employees and threatens their employment constantly. Not to mention he doesn't actually work, he's too busy with his questionable extracurricular activities to make Signal 88 a priority.

Guest

Lemmer covered up his records when corporate did an audit last year. He should be investigated again like how he bought a 2015 GMC Yukon with company money and smacked company plates on it and he doesn't even use it for work, it's his pov.

Because of his spending habits like this he has to cut more than 20000$ from spending just to make a profit. This caused employees hours to be cut or overall forced out and also causes salary managers to be over worked. He will force you to use your pov and then will refuse to reimburse the gas you used. I could keep going all night.

Stay away from this company if you want a job and stay away if you're a client because I've seen so many sites go uncovered when they should be and that basically ends up in the client paying for no body being there.

(Sometimes). He's so flakey I'm really surprised reed lets him own a franchise.

SIGNAL 88 AND RYAN LEMMER CT AND MASS AS SKETCHY AS THEY COME. Being investigated in ct/mass/va.

He's a *** person who inherited a few bucks, now thinks he can rip employees off.

Wrong pal! Wink wink...

Guest

What a joke of an owner. Couldn't get his lies straight, very young and immature.

Ryan Lemmer is just guy with a few bucks getting over any way he can.

Very sad how he treats his employees. Stay away from Signal 88 in Virginia.

Guest

Awful experiences with this company and senior management. Mr RYAN Lemmer lied to my staff and failed to pay his officers for months.

Signal 88 CT lasted only 6 weeks. I would stay away folks.

Guest

Used this company and it went bad from the start. This company is bad news.

I hired a few of the security guards in house, company didn't pay the staff for months.

We had them for 7 properties for only 2 months. I would not recommend this company and its owner RYAN LEMMER.

Hope this review helps.

Guest

This is a Great company. I would do business with them any day of the week.

We have used them for 5 years. No issues!

Guest

Yes bad experience here. Owner is untruthful and dishonest.

Still waiting for a resolution with labor board.

I would not apply at signal 88.

Thank you.

Guest

Wow! I was amazed to find these reviews.

I have always had amazing service from Signal 88 and can honestly say they worked very hard for me.

We use them on many of our properties and continue to recommend them today. I can honestly say this is a stand up company and I love working with them.

Guest

Funny this guy still around, Ryan is no good. Running signal 88 what a joke.

Guest

Yes I see many complaints about signal 88, not a trustworthy outfit. The owners name is Ryan Lemmer.

Can't imagine they will be around be too long.

I was told being investigated so maybe we can finally see this clown disappear. Good luck everyone.

Guest

We had the same issues and concerns with mr Lemmer in Virginia. Signal88 is a chop shop operation and Lemmer runs it. Run far away from this guy and security service business.
