Pros

SAS is annually one of the best companies in the world to work for in terms of benefits, quality of life and general work environment. Bonuses, if you're part of the Sales organization, can be significant, as can profit sharing and other income opportunities. Salary is below the industry average.. The HQ is like a beautiful college campus, with onsite healthcare, pharmacy, gym, daycare, tennis courts pool and more.

Cons

The problem with being a fantastic company to work for is that very few employees leave, and most of those that do are the ones that have hit their head on the ceiling and really want to do more. Management and other leadership positions are hard to come by because those positions rarely open up. Most employees have no real career path beyond <title>, senior <title> and principal <title>, and those are really just about the same job. Line managers know this and really struggle to sell a career path in the hiring process. Folks based at HQ lead the good life. If you're remote or work at home, the fantastic campus and associated benefits just look like a giant expense sink hole
