Pros

Remote and open schedule. Easy job to obtain.

Cons

Terrible pay for amount of work. Need to hit quotas. Review of reports are atrocious. Have to pay back training costs if you leave before a year of employment. They also nickle and dime for time, travel and expense. Would not recommend.

Pros

Flexible work schedule. Security Clearance

Cons

Company uses metrics to track everything - corporate doesn't seem to understand that their employees are human not robots. The metrics system is also widely inaccurate and is a poor reflection of ability and output. I made less money after a promotion with additional job duties because the metric tracking system was inaccurate - I was writing 13 pages investigative reports that counted as an equivalent amount of work to the 2 pages investigative reports I was turning in on my easier cases when I first started the job. There is no company culture whatsoever - the job is very isolating / lonely. The quality of the investigations that get turned over to the Federal agencies for adjudication is poor - the company requires the bare minimum amount of work be done to turn over cases as quickly as possible. No investigative tools are provided - you wont have access to any databases and they won't pay for any subscriptions... not even the 2 bucks a month for whitepages. They'd rather turn in a bare bones investigative report to the feds then spend any money on lead finding services like TR Clear

Pros

paycheck was not ever late

Cons

the logistics and day to day operations of Peraton is horrible, my sector was acquired in a snatch and grab acquistion and the merger of our existing company into the main Peraton was a nightmare, nothing went according to plan, multiple emails on same matter from upper management all with conflicting information. forced applications that require multiple differnet sign in authentications, IT is unresponsive and not helpful
