Pros

None. Zero. Zilch. Nada. Run away from this company and don’t look back!!!

Cons

After being offered the job it can be 6-12 months before your actual start date. Even then communication for onboarding is subpar. The virtual classroom training was okay but it didn’t match with the reality of the job. On the job training was good, but again, it did NOT match with the job. They forget to share things like important policies and KOI metric requirements and then blame you for not having the information management didn’t share. On the note, incompetent managers who obviously have never managed people in their lives. The management role is just one more step on their way up in the company and you are seen as a ring in that ladder to stepped on on their way up. Reviewers are completely inconsistent with what’s acceptable in the reports and what isn’t. And I don’t think it’s their fault either - again it’s poor policies and even poorer SOP’s with this place. Honestly, you’d be better working at ANY other agency. They only care about the bottom line so they can make profits, and not about their employees or completing the work correctly or with integrity.

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consistently led to believe the role was still active, I was ultimately contacted and informed that my offer had been rescinded due to changing business needs.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contracts and staffing requirements can change, waiting six months with minimal transparency only to have the offer withdrawn is unacceptable and demonstrates a lack of respect for candidates’ time and career planning.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