Pros

Cafés, on site day care, on site health care, you get your own office.

Almost Impossible to get promoted beyond senior unless all the directors know you. Pay is way below average. Managers have no influence on your bonus, raises or promotions They are way behind on technology

Pros

Campus is nice. There are some people who are genuinely nice. usually outside of the managed application services group. Area is well known, everyone knows SAS.

Cons

Nobody knows what SAS does. Or what SAS offers. Viya 4? Extremely vague--Great benefits that are difficult to take advantage of. Walking trails during lunch? no time. Lunch? at your desk rushed. be ready to be chained to your phone. rec center? nobody wants to stay on campus after 5 pm. 35 work weeks are a lie. 40 hours is a lie. Constant change for no reason. Outdated operations, only to get worse with this shift to Microsoft. hosting These cons are only specific to Building Q. others on campus are less stressed. how do i know? just pay attention to how other buildings act - less rushed, look happy. not really world class benefits. next level micromanagement. you might as well take your thinking cap off if you join SAS. oh and don't expect to learn any marketable skills we just act like we know what we are doing but no training at all on nothing. even sas. what a joke

Pros

Good work/life balance Some decent management that cares Exposure to new technology and industries Good healthcare

Cons

Insider politics A lot of promotions are given to Cary NC insiders on the ‘fast track’ ... this is BAD for moral. Lack of diversity in upper management especially in the first 3 levels which trickles down to promotions. Tepid growth, belt tightening, re-orgs, layoffs Lower pay and PTO compared to other organizations.
