Pros

work on important government projects. the HR has to be better that it appears to the employees to hide all the laws being broken.

Cons

management has taken enjoyment in torturing employees in classified environments and hiding it. management hates when employees want "free lunch" working 90+ hour weeks and then threatened when you don't want to work more.

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consistently led to believe the role was still active, I was ultimately contacted and informed that my offer had been rescinded due to changing business needs.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contracts and staffing requirements can change, waiting six months with minimal transparency only to have the offer withdrawn is unacceptable and demonstrates a lack of respect for candidates’ time and career planning.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

Pros

Nothing of worth to note here.

Cons

Leadership is a mess, recruiters are a mess, HR is a mess. The entire place is semi dysfunctional, recruiters don't know how to do their jobs with integrity but neither does the leadership, so....
