Pros

I can’t think of any.

Cons

- unethical compensation and no review process or policy for making it right - maternity/family leave is atrocious given the size of the company. Maternal disability is only half pay then only 2 weeks of leave. They claim this is a rare good benefit but it is sub-standard compared to other companies of their size like Booz Allen, Deloitte, Northrop Grumman, etc. who all have full paid disability and closer to 6 weeks additional leave. - no promotional opportunities - few to no training opportunities - middle and upper management completely disconnected from staff working directly with clients. - management showed lack of respect to women and people of color on occasion. Need to be updated on the fact that we aren’t working in the Mad Men era. - health benefits expensive for what you get especially compared to other companies - lack of mentorship and a collegial company culture

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consistently led to believe the role was still active, I was ultimately contacted and informed that my offer had been rescinded due to changing business needs.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contracts and staffing requirements can change, waiting six months with minimal transparency only to have the offer withdrawn is unacceptable and demonstrates a lack of respect for candidates’ time and career planning.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.
