      Now that the company is splitting up, the SAIC half has potential. Avoid the other half, Leidos, like the plague.

      Pros

      Smart people, some great leaders, good contracts. Good benefits, nice facilities and opportunities to advance if you're willing to crush other people to do it.

      Cons

      Politics and a legacy culture based on cutthroat competition and an attitude of 'get ahead at any cost.' Too much emphasis on 'do as I say, not as I do' from a few top managers. Very little loyalty from senior management to long-term, mid-level employees. The Board is more interested in feathering their own nest than taking care of the company and its people.

      A Company in Transition With Some Major Bumps and Detours Along the Way

      Pros

      Up to the recent past, a company with a relatively stable past. Large corporation with the standard suite of benefits offered to employees. Part of the massive military industrial complex that represents a large portion of the private sector in the Northern Virginia area.

      Cons

      The entrepreneurial spirit is a thing of the past. What once was a horizontal organization with each program manager more or less in charge of his/her "piece of the pie", has now been reduced to a very vertical structure with activities such as HR, procurement, contracts, security, etc placed under the corporate umbrella and forced to operate in a "one size fits all" functionality regardless of the contracts it supports or the particular situation it encounters. In addition, the company has been in the process of dividing itself into two separate entities (SAIC and Leidos) since August 2012, with all of the difficulties encountered in doing that with some 40K employees.

      SAIC was my whole life until I was tossed to the curb by a layoff along with 700 others

      Pros

      SAIC was the best company to work for until all the layoffs.

      Cons

      I was employed there for many, many years and they no longer take care of the employees who helped build the company into what it is today. They get rid of them. Very sad. Oh, and once you're out....good luck finding another job inside the company.
