Not great for contractors, mediocre benefits

Pros

The salary was pretty good.

Cons

If you're in a contract, you'll be pushed off to the contracting company who will then push you back to Pinkerton, where you'll be stuck in a limbo that nobody wants to own. Managers care more about making money than retaining people. The perks aren't great.
