Pros

Nice new building in Seattle but they're moving from the top floor to the bottom floor in the new building. Casual dress code.

Cons

Essentially, bad management. I work primarily with Microsoft and Nike. In addition to low pay, PAE expects you to work way beyond a 50-hour work week. Very cutthroat environment. Other reviews about HR being not present are true too.

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.
