I had a very unpleasant experience at this Social Security office due solely to the conduct of the…read moresecurity guard at the entrance. I approached the building during active rain and attempted to open the door, as one would normally do at any public building. The male security guard stationed at the main entrance, who was shorter in height, stocky in build, with black hair, dark eyes, and dark skin, abruptly stepped outside, physically blocked the door, and addressed me in a hostile, authoritarian manner. There was no visible signage or clear instruction indicating that visitors were required to wait for the guard to open the door, and I had no way of knowing this beforehand. Rather than showing basic courtesy or calmly explaining the procedure--especially given the weather--the guard chose to be confrontational and dismissive. The interaction felt like an unnecessary power trip and was completely inappropriate for a public-facing federal office. I am giving one star due to the lack of professionalism, courtesy, and basic human consideration shown by the security staff. This experience was avoidable and left a very negative impression.

I'm really concerned about the security guard I came in contact with that was working Monday Dec…read more7th at noon. He was guarding the door so my husband and I asked for assistance and before I could finish explaining to him why we were there he cut us off saying "get to the point." Maybe I could empathize if I was taking up time or holding up a line but there was no one behind us and I barely talked for 10 seconds at this point. I was appalled because we are not rude people and spoke to him with respect. I finished telling him anyway that I had to drive over there because he sent my mom away and her English is not good, he said they can provide translation for her over the phone and kept repeating that when I asked if they did not have one in person or anyone to assist her with calling if I can't be there next time with her. I've never met a person who has made me that uncomfortable especially since he works with social security office to help people who are in need. Please hire more patient and kind people. I don't want to be worried about my mom coming here by herself again.

This agency is nothing short of criminally negligent in nature. People argue that they "just work…read morehere" and "don't write the laws", but everyone gets to choose who they work for in this country. I lost my job of 5 years, reported to them that I was waiting on my unemployment insurance to kick in and that there would be a slight delay of a few weeks (which totaled about $200 that would be paid about 2 weeks late), then they IMMEDIATELY reported an entire month (over $400 [with no obligation to report anything under $1000]) as unpaid, despite having records that proved that to be untrue, which lowered my credit score by almost 40pts, which will end up costing me a total of up to $90,000 in APR over the next 30 years as I was just preparing to buy a house as soon as I started my new job, or potentially cost me the entire ability to have a house to leave to my 6 children as the only parent responsible enough to have a chance at that. There is no actual past due amount because the full amount has already been deducted from my unemployment insurance payments. Just an overzealous anti-father government theft agency doing their part to replace strong fathers with the state in order to forcefully indoctrinate our youth with their radical agenda once they render the father a weak figure with nothing to leave to their children.

If there is an organization that could be more useless and dysfunctional, with people empowered to…read moredo absolutely nothing to help a parent who is kind, provides everything asked for, and asks simple questions, I would say it is impossible. An organization that can, and does, screw up your life, and makes everything 10x more difficult than it needs to be. No idea how whoever runs this place is able to sleep at night, knowing how horrible they treat parents in Placer County. They constantly shift you to someone new, without letting you know. They ignore communication, don't return emails & phone calls, but expect you to provide everything instantly. If you are a young person and dream of having a useless career where you have the power to make the lives of the people in your community, who need your support and help, miserable, then this is the career for you!! No doubt there are some good people working here who try to be helpful. I've worked with a few. But the system, and the other workers who aren't helpful, and who do nothing to help, ruin it for those trying to do a good job. You can see many of the good ones leave because it's a horrible system, horrible processes, and incompetence abounds. SO DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!!!!! Pity anyone forced to be here at the hand of a vengeful ex.

There are two security guards by the door to check you in and make sure you're not carrying anything dangerous. You check in and get a ticket with a number on it like the DMV and wait to be called. Even though I have an appointment I wasn't called until almost 15 mins after my appointment time. The person that helped process my paperwork was nice and quick! I didn't expect a longer wait time when I had an appointment so be prepared for that.

Regina is the best worker at this facility. Everyone else here had a bad attitude and made the…read moreexperience uncomfortable. If Regina were not here, I would never come back. The first lady who did my fingerprints deliberately messed them up. She knew the fingerprints were done poorly and told me that if it became an issue, I would have to reschedule. Unfortunately, that's exactly what happened--we had to come back because the fingerprints were taken very badly. Thankfully, when we returned, we asked for Regina, and she truly went above and beyond. She handled everything professionally, fixed the issue, and was kind, calm, and helpful throughout the process. She is truly the sunlight in a very moody and unpleasant place. There are three other workers here, and all of them had attitudes that made the experience stressful. Thank God Regina is here, and I sincerely hope she stays as long as I, my kids, and anyone else we know need to use this facility--because we will always ask for Regina. If management is hiring, please hire people with good attitudes who actually care about doing their jobs correctly and not messing things up for others.
