Pros

* Career Advancement Opportunities are vast. SAIC offers free courses, college tuition assistance and career training to help you advance within the company. Most of us have been with the company for 4+ years and have no intention in leaving. * Communication - We hear from our senior leadership whether good or bad. We also have great teams working together to exceed customer expectation. Most importantly, management trusts you to do your job and doesn't micro-manage employees. * Overall all opinion - Great company to work for. I have only had one bad experience and once reported the company took care of the matter promptly.

Cons

* Most work is contract work and with contract work, sometimes contracts aren't renewed or even cancelled due to government financing. Caveat - the company will try to place you to avoid termination. * Project budgets are very lean, usually no money for outside vendor training or speciality office supplies.

Pros

Pay was outstanding. Some very, very smart people working there. Work/life balance never an issue ... until performance review time.

Cons

A little kid who won't grow up. Like Little Bo Peep, SAIC has lost its way and doesn't know what to do. So many opportunities to change for the better, but the employees who have been there for decades and remember the pre-IPO days + severely risk-adverse BOD + good ole boy network = a company that is being left in the dust by its competitors. Its Glory Days are long gone, but only the newer folks see it!
