Pros

Decent benefits Good hours Overtime pay Remote work

Cons

They will not reimburse you for education even tho they say they will. Your raises are based on the job scale pay and not your value, worth, or how good you are at the position. So if you top out on the scale don't expect a raise. You will have to find a higher paying position in the company. They do not give bonuses. They do not offer free training. It is extremely difficult to move up or into another department within the company that would be of higher pay. Lateral moves are easier. If you leave for another company consider the SAIC bridge burnt.

Pros

1. Salary is competitive for a "big" company. 2. Benefits are in-line with other competitors and may actually be a bit better if you're in the "fringe" package.

Cons

1. First line management, called Section Manager, is weak. All they do is just approve timesheet and don't really have regular conversations with their team. 2. For a company so big, it's not always easy to "move around" and find opportunities. 3. If you receive customer recognition, there isn't a monetary award given.

Pros

Competitive Pay for the industry

Cons

Cronyism is rampant in the higher branches of the company. Their training of "See Something, Say Something" is just window dressing and ethics is questionable at best. It is dangerous if you are calling out the toxic behavior of someone in the good 'ol boys club. Human Resources is did absolutely nothing to address the toxic behavior and is only there to po protect the company rather than manage ethical standards. Rather than hold management accountable, the seek out the low hanging fruit as a way of addressing the issues. If you are a highly skilled female engineer, SAIC is not a company you want to invest in; at least this is true for the EDIS contract.
