Pros

Lots of REALLY great people work here, and you can be on some cool programs. I've had a great relationship with management and the ability to be fully remote is fantastic. They genuinely want to be a good place to work and try to improve. Intentions are great....again, intentions.

Cons

Unkept promises of career growth and role seem to be consistent. EVERYTHING seems to be one-offs of poorly-planned guides so everything goes to your line manager, thus slowing things. Everything is siloed and you need to ask someone to ask someone else to ask their SME about something, as good communication doesn't exist. Team spirit is the only reason that stays afloat. Constant reorganization of management structure.

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.
