SAIC is no longer employee-centered

Pros

The people who make it worthwhile to come to work.

Cons

The culture has changed dramatically since going public. Corp. downsizing in the midst of a transition period = job instability. It's such a shame to see many senior, talented people leave for companies down the street.

Pros

Lots of diversity (new graduates working beside career employees) and lots of opportunity for continued education (seminars, workshops, classes, tuition).

Cons

There are a lot of career employees without vision or drive who like to gossip about being required to actually produce for their pay. However, I have found the compensation to be above the norm for the area and my coworkers, managers, HR, and senior management to be very supportive, involved and fair.

Pros

One of the best reasons to work at SAIC is for the opportunity to collaborate and learn from some very bright scientists and engineers. SAIC has a very good base of very smart people. SAIC usually has business in its sales pipeline within its federal and commercial sector opportunity.

Cons

Most of the time you will start your career here working well over forty hours work weeks. While doing this, you will only be paid for a normal work week. You will be used for your expertise until the project is completed. Then, you will either be transitioned to a support role, thrown on another project, or placed on internal work via a bench until you are told to leave the company. All of this would have been avoided has the sales folks actually closed more sales instead of generating a bunch of activity with little to no results. The sales pipeline has problems closing leaving delivery scrambling for the next gig.
