Pros

New assignments quite often - always something new Good pay Benefits are on par or maybe a bit better than competitors

Cons

Constant re-orgs - dont expect to stabilize in your job role, it will change around the time you figure out what you are supposed to be doing Need better training for employees, and a closer focus on employee development for future contracts Lots of waste investing into things that dont have the opportunity to get off the ground, investments into new products/services should be multi-year rather than yearly

Pros

Various programs to support each employee independently. Education Benefits Internal Opportunity

Cons

More PTO and flexibility with the PTO for employees would keep many people.

Pros

Decent learning and development opportunities. Some really passionate and hard working people on your teams. Performance management is relaxed and flexible.

Cons

Benefits are wildly expensive for a company of their size. Was laid off with 1.5 months notice right before Christmas. Months prior to layoff was forced to use my PTO due to gov shutdown, but was still getting my full paycheck during shutdown. I believe this was so that they could diminish our PTO banks so they would have to pay out less when they laid us off. Laid off with zero severance despite being at company for almost 4 years and being in good standing. No efforts from management to make connections for a new internal role despite being strongly encouraged to search internally. New CEO Jim is not personable at all. Gives heavy corporate and cog in a machine vibes. Rumor has it that in the defense contracting industry, SAIC will be faring rather poorly within next 1-4 years.
