Pros

SAS Institute has a beautiful campus, wonderful people and great benefits. There is a healthcare facility and pharmacy on campus.

Cons

The salary is below industry standards for many positions and opportunities for advancement are rare. Since the financial meltdown, all positions (except for sales) have been on a hiring freeze - meaning that their is no increase in staff but an ongoing increase in the amount of work required of each employee. This becomes a burden for even for over achievers.

Pros

Nice severance packages after working for 25 years.

Cons

The worst, most inhumane termination process. No dignity, no respect, no explanation, no concern for you as a person, your loyalty, your dedication, or service. A waste of your time and energy.
