Low Raises

Pros

Long-term contract so job is secure.

Cons

Company-wide email told everyone average of 4% raise. I got less which doesn’t help morale and I already felt underpaid. Inflation and housing has jumped so much, there’s no way I can afford to buy a new house right now as a mid-level engineer. Company also promotes flexible work location but that’s really up to your boss and most want you in the office daily.

Business Outlook

Pros

There are many projects at peraton to be a part of, so there is a diverse range of technologies you can potentially work on.

Cons

Projects can vary widely in terms of duration, but luckily there's a lot of projects to be a part of when one ends. Since it is a defense company, a lot of the technology may be outdated, but there are projects I've been on where they are using new technology.
