Herndon, Virginia-based Peraton, a provider of information technology, integration, communications, and consulting services, has announced a major restructuring of its core operations.
The restructuring will impact at least 783 employees associated with the company's recent acquisition of Chantilly, Virginia-based Perspecta, also a government services provider, and the loss of a major Navy contract supporting its NGEN (Next Generation Enterprise Network).
According to a company spokesperson, “We are sorry to inform you that Perspecta will be conducting a reduction in force at its location in Meridian, Idaho. Consequently, 302 employees from these sites will be laid off beginning on June 4, 2021 and additional separations will occur thereafter into August 2021. This action will be permanent and Perspecta’s entire operations at the location will be closed.
The reduction in force will also include an additional 481 employees, 107 at Perspecta Chantilly, Virginia headquarters and 374 in Norfolk, Virginia are scheduled for June 4, 2021.
Change is coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life or promises for a bright future. Just because something bad hasn't happened yet, doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
