Occasionally at Alarm System Reviews.Com, we receive helpful reviews and "inside info" emails from employees of home security companies (Usually former salespeople, monitoring staff or customer service reps).  Some wish to defend their employers, others might want to confirm an alarm company's less than stellar reputation.  We usually post the reviews in the appropriate section, but we found the reviews for ADT below especially helpful / informative and decided they deserved their own section on the site:

I can proudly say that I am employed by ADT.
Along with the technician's review, I'm equally as disgusted by what people are saying about ADT's services without realizing that you get what you pay for....(read the entire comment)

For all of you people who think ADT technical representatives try to con you into having a service visit to make the company money, you are sorely mistaken.
If an ADT employee receives 100 calls per day they can only make a work order for 15 of those people without being penalized. The company actually loses money on service calls and thats why employees must meet that strict standard.

I'm not going to lie, for the almost 2 years that I worked there I did receive my fair share of unhappy customer's and HONESTLY very few were actually the fault of ADT. Most of the unhappy calls I received were due to people not testing their system. If your system is not communicating, we don't know. We only monitor active signals if your system isn't sending us a signal we don't know its there, YOU MUST TEST YOUR SYSTEM.
