Pros

Benefits and compensation are fantastic, job location is ok.

Cons

The company is a great company but our management for this team is absolutely awful. They refuse to allow our team members to see the contract, they make up rules whenever they feel like it, they are vindictive and will squash any employee that needs anything outside of what is normal. Any time our team asks for clarification on the contract we get the run around and the management makes up “what’s in the contract” on the fly while withholding the contract from us. It is impossible to know our rights as employees because it seems that the HR department just regurgitates what these bully type managers say. While being deployed to Bahrain they constantly fluctuate our compensation and when it’s time to leave the job and fly home they absolutely abandon their employees except for the plane ticket home. Even though Peraton policy requires 2 weeks quarantine from business travel abroad, they just let their employees go and take their insurance on their last work day. Absolutely unacceptable.

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consistently led to believe the role was still active, I was ultimately contacted and informed that my offer had been rescinded due to changing business needs.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contracts and staffing requirements can change, waiting six months with minimal transparency only to have the offer withdrawn is unacceptable and demonstrates a lack of respect for candidates’ time and career planning.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