Pros

Mentor/Immediate supervisor was very hands on and willing to offer advice, direction, and knowledge. Hourly rate for the internship was higher than others in the industry that I spoke with.

Cons

Project Manager was at times vague in assigning tasks and was not very eager to provide additional direction later on. I enjoy working independently but it got to the point to where I was apprehensive to ask questions as I encountered unforeseen obstacles associated with the task.

Pros

- Good salary and staff (not just management) qualifies for cash and stock bonuses. - Exciting programs. - SAIC looks good on your resume.

Cons

- Poor benefits, to include expensive healthcare premiums and 5 year vesting for 401(k) contributions. - Management is unwilling to invest in their employees and it's difficult to get the company to sponsor training classes or reimburse for tuition.
