Pros

SAS was once the unchallenged leader in their field; the quality of life (if you happened to have been fortunate enough to have worked in Cary) was amazing

Cons

The company's decline is accelerating. Where once SAS enjoyed an unchallenged landscape into which to sell its very expensive yet very excellent analytics-centric solutions, today there are myriad competitors selling equally fine solutions at a fraction of the license costs.

Pros

Benefits: health coverage, on-site gym, childcare, healthcare center, and more. Work-life balance: predictable hours, flexibility for parents and a culture that doesn't expect you to grind 60-hour weeks.

Cons

Compensation lags the market, slow career advancement and promotions can take years. Change-resistant culture and new ideas move slowly. Leadership team manages up to just one person.
