Pros

One of the reason why it is good to work for the company is that the offices I worked at have professionals working there. They have good post in most areas.

Cons

The down side of working there is that sometimes you do find the people you work with and around, can not be so nice to security. You have people disrespect security officers at times and not showing them the respect they deserve.

Pros

Best work environment I've experienced in my long career. Management is very supportive of the employees, always available and encouraging. I never felt like I was just a cog in a wheel, but felt like a valuable part of a high performing team.

Cons

Several of the positions are in support of a client, instead of directly supporting Pinkerton. If the contract ends, so can your position. As a contractor, your salary is set by the client.
