Pros

Had some coworkers I liked at least and I'll miss

Cons

If you want to work for a company that offers minimal benefits, no stock options, no bonuses, an incredibly low base salary that's verging on predatory, laughable annual raises, and want to work under management that fights you tooth and nail on paying for the tools you need to do your job, then look no further than Peraton. Myself and several others I worked with hit all our metrics and were given good performance reviews with no negative feedback against us, yet management gave us a measely 1.5% annual raise and acted like we were lucky to get that. I have had to fight to get the company to reimburse me for a work trip to a client. Which by the way, you're given a budget so small ($100 per day), it's hard to stick to with the cost of ubers, breakfast, lunch, almost "mandatory" company dinners (which they won't pay for), and almost "mandatory" happy hour (which again they won't pay for). I also had to pay extra out of my own pocket for that trip because I didn't want to fly the red-eye they wanted me to take because of it being the cheapest option.

Pros

Great flexibility. Land with a good team and good manager and the job is not too bad.

Cons

Production can be pushed a bit too much. But that’s how they make their money.
