Pros

- Cannot comment much on pros. Did not stay long enough to experience them if there are any. -No oncall rotation for the team I joined. -Hiring compromised and worked within my requested salary.

Cons

-Onboarding is comprised of two portions; general onboarding that describes how to use the absurd timecharging/timesheet system (required even if you're salary). Then role specific training; this can vary between teams but was awful and was not useful, as the teams role has pivoted within the year and training was still being developed and reviewed by the time two new employees joined. -Management seemed to not have any engineering experience. This affected knowledge sharing and resolving deep dive issues that required authority and high level understanding of said issues. -Recruitment was very shallow and not fleshed out. The interviews did not include peer engineers and administrators to conduct a technical evaluation of skills for hiring (due to schedule confliction or general absence), thus candidates were unable to determine the skill level of this job and knowledge required for this position through technical questions. -Day 1 communication was severely lacking. You receive an outline of general onboarding and no communication from your point of contact, so it leaves you confused on any required documentation needing to be processed by other teams or agencies. This affects many components when starting, as you need certain approvals to perform your role. -How job performance and reviews were not described at all. This left employees in the dark on how opportunities and growth projection is conducted.

~24k people employed by SAIC, so good chance of finding another job if you don’t like the one you have Benefits are okay Good management Competitive pay Flexible on taking leave

Cons

Only 2 weeks of PTO, which includes sick leave Not many fully remote jobs Their intranet for employees is a black hole & can be hard to find information you need; use super outdated timesheet software
