      You'll be fired for no reason

      Pros

      The cafeterias are wonderful and Jim Goodnight is a saint. If you like working out, the gyms always have a spot available.

      Cons

      Since this is a North Carolina company, you can be fired for no reason, as I was. Human Resources said I wasn't learning the software fast enough, but I had been there for 13 years and had written several books on SAS/STAT, SAS/QC, SAS/ETS, SAS/IML, and others.

      Over achievers- run away

      Pros

      Beautiful campus. Delicious food with a wide range of options. Easy 35 hour work week, no pressure to work more. People are very friendly. Huge array of amenities (gym, salon, fitness classes, running trails)

      Cons

      You will not be challenged at this company. If you are looking for a job where you keep your head down, perform the bare minimum of your job requirement, and just have to play politics to stay where you are, SAS is for you. Pay is well below industry average. Benefits (that are supposed to compensate for lower pay) are industry standard. Most benefits are only helpful for those with children/families. All in all, if you are looking for an easy, cushy job with okay pay where you will never be forced out, come work for SAS for the rest of your life like everyone else here. If you are looking for a dynamic, challenging environment where you learn and have lots of opportunity for growth and upward mobility, stay far far away.
