The environment is professional and the staff is friendly. What was really disappointing is the way they handle payments for the participants. Instead of issuing you a check, they pay you in gift cards! Not only do you have to wait a ridiculous amount of time to get the cards but after using the card, your balance is compromised by some " fees for service." It is absolutely crazy. Subsequently, you have to jump through hoops to get the rest of your money. It is simply not worth the time and effort to participate with this group. I would suggest going to other firms in the Baltimore area where you will get paid the right way and in a timely fashion.

I've been going to Absolute Investigative for about the past decade of my life for various reasons,…read morebut mostly fingerprinting purposes to fulfill ATF requirements. Absolute Investigative is a reputable company that I plan on continuing to do business with, however today I am writing this review to illustrate one of the most negative business experiences I've ever had. The experience has very little to do with Absolute Investigative and everything to do with a specific individual working at this location. I normally go to Bel Air or Towson Absolute, but because I was in the Essex area and I've never had a poor experience at any of the other locations I figured I'd get my fingerprints done at the Essex location. In order to specify who I am writing this review about... I was at this location on 6-June-2022 around 4pm and there were two employees working. One was a younger female who was in training to learn the job. The other employee was an older female with a nose ring who seemed to be the senior employee on duty. This is the individual I am writing this review about, I will refer to her as "the manager". The younger female helped me at the front desk when I arrived, she had a multitude of questions while I was at the front desk that she asked the manager. The manager never got up and answered all questions from behind the wall, refraining from getting up for just about anything. I had to get 4 fingerprint cards done today totaling $100, which for me is a fair sum of money to spend. The female in training didn't know what she was doing. This was apparent to me when she tried to use the black piece of plastic designed to hold the fingerprint card in place as the ink pad. After finding the ink pad she messed up the first card by fingerprinting the wrong hand. ALL OF THIS IS FINE, the problem to me is she obviously wasn't receiving any training from the manager. More-so when I asked the younger female to get a new card the manager grunted from behind the wall that I'd have to pay for a whole new card. She made the younger female put "white-out stickers" over the fingerprints that were done in error. I asked several times for a new card, however every time I was talked to like an idiot for wanting to do so. In my defense when you pay $100 for fingerprint cards (which are just pieces of paper) this is a small favor to ask. These cards accompany tax stamps worth hundreds of dollars that go to the ATF for review, so if they get denied due to inadequate printing it is a costly mistake that I don't get informed of until months after submission. If I had to sum up the "manager" discussed above I would use the words lazy, disrespectful, and unprofessional. I WILL NEVER go back to the Essex location due to this employee. I WILL go back to Bel Air and Towson Absolute in the future. I warn those who run the Absolute Investigative business chain and potential customers planning to visit the Essex Absolute about this employee. Her lack of professionalism when handling customers is disgraceful. Moreover the inadequate leadership and utter lack training that she was giving the younger employee was sad to me. It is one thing to be a low-life yourself, but when your toxic leadership and attitude stagnates fellow employees that is quite problematic. When it comes to a business that deals with sensitive information handling such as Absolute Investigative she absolutely not the type of person I would want associated with my business.

They do not just offer 2 revisions, they work it until it is right and makes you happy. If you need a website built or SEO etc. I highly recommend this place. They go by personal referrals so they are so much cheaper than Semrush or Go Daddy because they do not have the high advertising overhead. At 1 point, I did a 4 hour zoom meeting with the actual person building my website to get final things tweaked instead of having to go through the customer service reps. Talk to them before you make your decision where to get your website and other marketing needs done. You will not be disappointed.
