Peraton reviews

bi-weekly paycheck , some good people at the ground level that does the day to day work.

Peraton was a spin-out from Harris Corporation in mid 2017. I worked for the company prior to the Harris acquisition, during its ownership, and now under the new Peraton brand. I can honestly say that the company is in the best position its ever been. Spin-outs create real challenges, since the company has to reinvent just about everything that had been provided by the former parent. Fortunately, the senior management is doing all the right things to reset the business on a positive course. There is a lot left to tackle, but they have made huge progress. They abandoned the archaic IT systems of the past in favor of new cloud based services that are much more employee friendly. Every employee got a new PC, for the first time in 7 years for many. All of the key facilities are being upgraded with better decor and work spaces. And the benefits really took a leap in the right direction, after the HR department conducted an employee-wide survey. Now our PTO, company holidays, and healthcare all out pace competitors that are twice our size. Most importantly, Peraton has replaced the culture of fear, negativity and resistance to change of the past, with one of real transparency and collaboration, and what they call a "bias for action." If you want to make a mark for yourself, this place has lots of opportunities.
