Pros

Contract work was good, room for growth and raises/bonuses were given for drive and performance.

Cons

Corporate is useless and scummy. I was given a lay-off notice due to contract loss (which is fine, no hard feelings). The lay-off notice stated that I could remain their employee for a month while searching for internal opportunities, while they covered all benefit premiums, which seemed like a generous offer. During this month, I was given two verbal offers for positions, both of which were rescinded at no fault of my own (one re-chose the candidate to make an offer to after extending an offer to me, the other made an offer, then realized that I did not meet the experience requirements). At the end of the month, they took the benefit premiums out of my final paycheck and refused to uphold their word when I questioned it. Additionally, they misreported my last day of work to my state's Department of Labor as over a month after my true last day worked and refused to correct the mistake when asked. Also, the corporate IT help-line just plain sucks at their job.

Pros

competitive leave package about on par with market expectations

Cons

Company preaches compliance and ethics, but expect to be ghosted by HR and the reporting hotline if you follow our annual training and report it. In my opinion, I was instructed on multiple occasions to work off the clock, and then retaliated against for reporting it. Your experience is totally dependent upon the contract you are on as management freely makes up rules and procedure different from corporate documentation and there is no oversight whatsoever. Management is totally unaware of timecharging law and openly retaliates. HR-wise, there is “no one driving the bus.” They are rude, spiteful, ill-informed, and probably overworked. The culture at SAIC has changed and for the worse.

Pros

Being a large company benefits are competitive.

Cons

Project Alignment and Assignment: The process for project assignment can feel unclear, leading to a lack of security for employees and making it difficult for us to plan our professional growth within the company. I believe clearer criteria for these decisions would be beneficial. Accountability and Support: There's a perception that management's support is heavily influenced by the project lead or architect's relationship with the client, rather than an objective assessment of the situation. It would be helpful to have a more defined channel for employees to voice concerns without fear of reprisal. Living Our Values: While we emphasize ethics in our official communications, I've observed instances where these values aren't consistently applied in daily interactions. Reinforcing these standards at all levels of the organization would create a more trustworthy and respectful work environment for everyone.
