      Brilliant minds gone to waste...

      Pros

      Lots of openings. Ability to move about. Seems to be something for everybody. Overall pay is not bad, in general. Every office and division is different, some better than others and vice versa.

      Cons

      Losing a lot of good people due to lack of communication and direction. Some substandard development due to tight and usually constricting timelines and budget (welcome to the contractor world). Senior management does not provide good vision and direction, seem more interested in the bottom dollar than keeping and building good teams. Lack of incentives to further education and professional knowledge. Lack of reward for doing a good job.

      If you can deliver what the customer wants and manage company expectations... SAIC is the place for you!

      Pros

      Career tracks and paths are well established. Company "brand" recognition is positive and the company’s reputation is very good. Stock prices are hanging in there in these tough times, also. And, what SAIC lacks in middle management, they make up for with superb top level management. Ken Dahlberg is first rate. Right up there with Jack Welch.

      Cons

      SAIC is a large company with a widely dispersed organizational structure. BUT this is all made up of individual people with very different work and management styles. You can work for SAIC and have experiences that are totally different from anyone else. Wildly different –in fact, depending on the project, the deliverables and the customer. I don't really think there IS a "typical" SAIC employee experience. Certainly there is no great SAIC management in the sky door at which all decisions are made. Leadership / Policy / Strategy = YES. Management / Procedures / Tactics – NOT so much.
