      Transparent as a brick

      Pros

      None at the moment I can honestly think of.

      Cons

      Company is transparent as a brick. Everything was disclosed at the last minute at the expense of its employees. I was employed a one salary and within 3 months was required to take a 45% cut in the salary. The company knew at the time of hiring that this was going to happen but hooked everyone to bring up staffing to customer requirements at the beginning of the contract.

      Best private contracting company to work for!

      Pros

      They take care of their employees; once your at Peraton they go above and beyond to make an effort to make sure you keep your employment within Peraton through their family first program. They send out a list of open positions every week and will follow up with you on a weekly basis until you are placed within Peraton. Out of all the contracting companies I have ever worked for, this one has the most benefits if you are in a tier 5 position. They go above and beyond from paying for school to not even having to pay for healthcare. Also PTO on a tier 5 contract starts at 25 days. I don’t know any other private contracting company that will start you off with that many days. Another pro is differential pay for people that are in the military.

      Cons

      Contracting can be unpredictable in itself and this is no different. You just got to make sure you always plan for the worst and hope for the best when it comes to making sure that the next option year is going to happen on your contract because sometimes it can be unpredictable; but that’s where your management should shine and keep you in the loop (which mine does).
