Career Resources
I worked at a few contracting firms like that. It’s constantly a race to the bottom pay wise since there are tons of bodies exiting the military for that kind of work. Less people are required on the ground for those types of roles each year as the US backs out of the area. Also, the pay scale varies depending on what you’re doing. Constellis had roles when I was last in Afghanistan paying as low as $65k for base security. Most people think of the close protection work they provide when you think of such firms, and the daily pay rate has fluctuated over the years from $500-700/day for that type of work. I enjoyed my time on contracts, but you should also consider things like SOFA agreements in places like in Iraq or Afghanistan. I think the BB is the way to go for more stability and better pay upside.
2/10, Blackwater doesn't even exist anymore (it's "Academi" now). Also if I saw your resume and saw you'd worked at a PMC I'd literally ding you on the spot, no matter how impressive the rest of your experience is.
Why? Because you don't have the balls to go overseas to a warzone?
Because I don't want to work with fucking war criminals brah
