Pros

-Experience with various government agencies and federal investigations -Flexible work -Very independent. I hear from my manager maybe twice a month.

Cons

-Extremely demanding. You work based on source units. You’ll be assigned some, begin working, and then have to write off coverage. All for what? No units. So you have to try to make up for it in some other way. -Not paid enough for the work we do. Honestly, we could go work for government agencies doing the same thing and make more. -Bonuses are few and hard to get. If something is even the slightest bit off you won’t bonus. - Very little room to grow. You can either level up to be an investigator taking on more work or become a manager.

Pros

Peraton is a great company to work for. My boss built a huge Datacenter from the ground up. He is very helpful to everyone in our team.

Cons

Onboarding is slow, it takes longer than I expected.

Pros

Typical contract work where you need to adapt to the customer's environment and requirements. Overall, it is a pleasant place to work with a supportive team. The company genuinely cares about its employees and regularly checks in to ensure they have what they need to be successful and satisfied in their roles.

Cons

have no major complaints. One area for improvement would be offering more employee outings or team-building events to strengthen connections across the company. It would also be great to see additional continuing education opportunities beyond graduate degree programs, such as industry certifications, technical training, workshops, or professional development courses.
