Pros

The company has great reach globally with talented people working with clients. Great heart and cooperation amongst the Pinkertons when I was there. Very entrepreneurial in spirit; giving a lot of latitude for personally driven business initiatives

Cons

The management seems driven by short-sightedness in their approach to business model (revenue growth, client acquisition, practice definition just to name some) The chief/cook/bottlewasher role that employees take on is hard for on-the-ground folks because there is no help to alleviate this problem!

Pros

They were willing to hire me

Cons

Refused to pay enough to actually live. Functioned as hourly employees but were forced to work OT for free because of salaries. Anyone who wasn't a white man got extra rules and procedures and nitpicky grammar, etc thrown at them.
