Even if u dont want to drill the holes, at least use the metal bracket and cement down the bracket. In a condo, it is very likely to encounter strong winds and all.. and you certainly don't want to go to jail for negligence over a fallen compressor unit.. money can earn, life cannot replace even with 1 million insurance..

For safety reason the compressor should be secured. No question on that. 
However, since this is located at high levels, fastening the base of the compressor is also going to pose a high risk.
How is the worker going to reach the base of the compressor?
Later on, when there is a need to service the compressor, how is the worker going to reach the base of the compressor to unfasten the holding down bolts?

A good installer would have install a MS bracket that is attached to the wall. Since the fastening bolts are higher up, they can be access easily from the opened window. The base of the MS brakcet will prevent any slippage and movement of the compressor.

Generally, the installation workmanship is really bad sad.gif

No need to fasten every single hole, two or three is enough already provided that they are stainless steel material. Oh ya, anyone ever installed a bracket made from s.steel? Always see only iron (that rusts) being used
