Pros

Good people to work with. Reasonably competitive rates of pay

Cons

Peraton is a perkless company. Full time salaried employees are really just contractors. They have no bench, have draconian furlough policies and offer no severance. Additionally, Peraton is quietly downsizing its workforce by rejecting applicants who previously worked remotely - despite the company having very little real estate for office space.
