Pros

- various on campus amenities (not free like other big name IT, but more there for convenience) - good benefit designed around family with kids - good hours if you're not a developer

Cons

- little to no career growth - low comp, laughable raise and bonus - lots of politics, different groups under the same division sometimes won't cooperate for a common mission - R&D direction is ambitious, but unclear how it will carry out with severe lack of human capital to do everything on the book. - front-line managers tend to be micromanaging and doesn't assign work according to team member strengths but rather availability. - Most HR don't have the employee's best interest at heart, but SAS HR makes an effort to make sure short-term cost minimization comes before retaining valuable employees.

Pros

Profit sharing, automatic 401(k) contribution, on-campus health care, subsidized cafeterias, individual offices (with doors), tons of on-campus services (hair salon, watch repair), on-campus child care.

Cons

Salaries are below average, though generous profit sharing and merit pay makes up for it. People tend to stay in their jobs for a long time, making it difficult to change jobs within the company and try something new.
