      Pros

      Great benefits, nice campus, good food.

      Cons

      Things happen very slowly at SAS. I once heard a recruiter describe working in IT as "sleepy". PMO has lost it's focus on supporting it's customers. (Other SAS Business Units). Passive Aggression and Micromanagement are commonplace and supported by upper management.

      Not what it used to be

      Pros

      Dedicated co-workers (if they’re not driven away) Health insurance Onsite amenities at HQ: healthcare, gym, daycare, cafes Salaries look lower than industry, but in-kind benefits help close the gap

      Cons

      SAS is really many companies in one-- each division has its own subculture. I can only outline the one division I was in: 1) Cheap, cheap, cheap. CapEx, OpEx, headcount, travel etc 2) Stingy with bonuses and praise 3) Niggardly with raises and promotions 4) Very hard to grow or move within the company 5) Rampant favoritism 6) Though Dr. G is not getting any younger, age discrimination is real Sadly, SAS is “regressing to the mean” as a workplace.
