Pros

There are some really great people that I work with. They work as a team, and work hard every single day. We never have to our work home with us, and once the day is done it is done.

Cons

I am sure that other employees at PAE are paid very well, but not the contract I work with. Management constantly talks about cutting hours, even for full timers, yet ask the employees to work harder, faster, and more accurately. I have been promoted twice with no raise. I am given more responsibilities, I am authorized to teach new employees, however I still have not been given a raise. Benefits are "meh" as management admits that employees will pay %100 for their benefits and part timers are no longer eligible for benefits. If a work week is going to be slow employees will literally be FORCED to choose a day off work for that week. Doing this nearly forces an employee to take vacation time because we can not afford to lose 8 hours of pay. If an employee has no vacation time, they will lose 8 hours of work. Management expects us to act like professional career adults yet treat us like children. Apparently, the most senior employees have not received a pay raise in 10 years!!!
