Should be noted....a number of companies have approached Pelco over the years to discuss an acquisition, but while a publicly held company has a responsibility to its share holders Pelco always carried that same obligation to their employees. It's part of what built the intoxicating corporate culture that so many Fortune 1000 companies struggle to obtain, and it's that culture that allows for fanatical customer service like 24-hour turn around on repairs and 24-hour tech support. A culture like Pelco's is not an easy thing to build and it's what made them so special. Don't worry; it's not going anywhere. As David McDonald, President and CEO of Pelco, states:
"I think it goes without saying that I would never support any change which would allow this unique culture to be lost. Schneider Electric was carefully selected as our future partner because we share that exact same mindset."
And that's the truth!
