Pros

I now know to never work for PAE. Before this I had never heard of them, now I will never forget and can warn others.

Cons

Interviews were absurd, I should have seen it as a sign. Management had no idea what my job was. Everyone was very comfortable treating me as a second class citizen. I worked extremely hard, have a high education and was paid horribly. I was hired for one job and after I put in my notice for my current job I found out I was doing something completely different than what I thought. No one seemed the least bit concerned. There was no one I could talk to. My PAE Manager, who I never met, was annoyed when anyone contacted her. The agency that I was contracted out to said that my horrible experience with PAE was par for the course and that I am way too good to be working there. There was no opportunity for employee reviews. Similarly, there was no opportunity for raises. I felt trapped and am so happy that I left.

Pros

It was immensely rewarding participating on projects from start to finish.

Cons

Location was not my favorite. One way in, one way out, causes traffic getting on and off base. Base police are strict.
