I am writing this review to express my absolute outrage and deep dissatisfaction with the security service provided by Gruppe Sechs (G6) at a local nightlife establishment. As someone who is currently licensed as a security guard with years of experience, I am appalled by the disgraceful and unprofessional behavior displayed by the G6 team.

 

The only positive aspect of their service was their punctuality, but that's where it ended. From the moment the establishment opened, the G6 security guards demonstrated sheer incompetence and a severe lack of professionalism.

 

One of the guards interacted with a patron at the bar, and the situation almost spiraled out of control. Despite eventually de-escalating the issue, the guard failed to clarify his reasons for approaching the patron in this manner. Such unprofessional conduct is simply inexcusable, particularly in a bustling nightlife environment.

 

In another bewildering incident, the doorman guard recklessly abandoned his post, without any communication, to chase someone who slipped past him. Engaging in a pointless wild goose chase, he left the entrance unguarded and vulnerable. Upon his return, he was easily distracted by another patron inquiring about a different guard's badge number. It took my intervention to steer the guards back to their duties.

 

Additionally, the interior security guard repeatedly went outside to antagonize the individual asking for the badge number, who was now recording. In a blatant disregard for the law, the guard inappropriately told the individual to stop recording, despite the San Andreas Penal Code, Video & Audio Recording Policy (Section 1409), which states: "The State of San Andreas affords the right of individuals to film and or record others, without consent, unless a reasonable person would have the expectation of privacy. Public places should always negate this expectation of privacy." This guard also attempted to instigate a conflict with someone else outside, whom we assume to be a minor, for reasons that remain incomprehensible.

 

Throughout the night, I was forced to provide guidance and best practices to the G6 team in an attempt to maintain a semblance of safety and security for our guests. The fact that I had to step in as a customer is alarming and underscores the abysmal quality of service provided by Gruppe Sechs.

 

The situation culminated in the doorman guard being physically assaulted without a weapon and taken down by an unknown assailant. This shocking incident went unreported by the security team, and it was only brought to our attention by an observant friend and off-duty law enforcement officer.

 

The G6 guards exhibited pitiful communication skills, an essential trait for a profession that demands quick response and clarity. Frankly, the security provided by Gruppe Sechs was a disastrous liability rather than a help, especially considering their outrageous rate of $6000 per hour per guard.

 

As a currently licensed security guard, I cannot fathom recommending Gruppe Sechs (G6) for any security needs. Their abhorrent lack of professionalism, dismal communication, and utter inability to manage potential conflicts put both the venue and patrons in grave danger. I sincerely hope that this feedback will be taken to heart by Gruppe Sechs management.
