Pros

They provide a paycheck and health insurance.

Cons

They apparently reserve the right to raise health insurance premiums when ever they want. They decided to not cover dependants anymore for certain employees so premiums jumped from ~$200 per paycheck to ~1200 and are not allowing us to opt out since open enrollment is over. 401K match is only up to 6% It's the end of March and they have still not sent an accurate W2. Local management doesn't promote people based on merritt, only based on who they like. If you have issues (HR, payroll, etc) the only option to get it resolved is submit a ticket, there is no longer a person that you can call.

Pros

There are none to report.

Cons

My experience with Peraton’s hiring process was deeply disappointing and, unfortunately, reflected very poor communication practices. I received an offer in October for a position supporting a newly awarded FAA contract supporting their new Air Traffic Control System and was initially told that I would receive a start date in December. When December arrived, I was informed that the timeline had shifted to January. This same message continued each month, with repeated assurances that the position was still moving forward and that I simply needed to remain patient. Over the course of nearly six months, I completed all requested pre-employment steps, including the background check, and made multiple attempts to obtain meaningful updates through email. Most of those requests were met with little to no response, and the limited communication I did receive provided no real clarity beyond another delayed timeline. After being consistently led to believe the role was still active, I was ultimately contacted and informed that my offer had been rescinded due to changing business needs. While I understand that contracts and staffing requirements can change, waiting six months with minimal transparency only to have the offer withdrawn is unacceptable and demonstrates a lack of respect for candidates’ time and career planning. I was very excited about this next phase of my career, as well as the opportunity to support this new contract. But after this ordeal, I quite frankly do not recommend anyone to seek employment here.
