Pros

SAS can be great for some, the benefits are great and they have a top-notch fitness program. On-site health care is convenient for immediate illnesses.

Cons

The company has a lot of under-employment and complacency. There is also a lot of nepotist. The biggest issue is that there lack of mobility/advancement.

Pros

Benefits Offices - company culture that most individuals get their own office Cary extras are unsurpassed - gym, massages, barber, medical facilities Great if you need child care for 3 children or less, even better off campus in a regional office - on campus there is a waiting list

Cons

Processes are set up based on a small company- not driven to accomplish sales in a timely manner. No documented process, seems like everyone assumes all workers have been there 10 years and just "know how things work" Technology is focused on addressing the needs of a few key customers who seem to keep the company in business. Spaghetti code is the least of the challenges Cary let's the field over sell and under deliver because there is no honest discussion about gaps in capability or performance No real bench-marking- wonder why a company of this size and maturity doesn't provide this type of data? Salaries are not competitive, even for NC, forget anywhere else Federal leadership is exceedingly poor and there is no "leadership" involved - no strategy- only politics and personalities Very poor treatment of women - many inappropriate relationships between high level managers / executives and other staff across the company- really bad in Cary.

Pros

Strong HR that really offers a lot of perks. Nice people to work with.

Cons

Third Consulting VP in three years, direct reports have changed even more often. You are stuck at your job level unless you work in one of the regional offices. There in no career path planning, which is not surprising given the constant change in management.
