Community Service

The corporation helps college students during the summer and semester breaks by providing them jobs as administrative assistants or junior network support employees. Our CEO feels higher education is very important in today’s world and enjoys helping students to achieve success. Many executives and employees of PESystems work in their communities, and are involved in local civic associations.

PESystems hosts a high school senior from the local high schools in the Northeast Massachusetts area each summer. They are hired as a paid intern to help finance their college tuition. The students apply through AFCEA, their applications and resumes are then forwarded over to our office in Littleton, MA. We review about 60 applicants, and pick our top three. One student is then assigned to us. Some corporate executives choose to individually sponsor a college student by providing a laptop computer and tuition assistance. Additionally, at our San Antonio, Texas office, we support a science camp for kids during the summer. It is run through the Science and Engineering (SEA) Magnet School. Each year scholarships are awarded to worthy students to help finance a college degree in the sciences.
