Pros

- People are really good to work with and highly skilled - Lots of interesting CompSci/Data areas covered if you want to learn - Pay is competitive for a TS role

Cons

- Company direction is a bit questionable - No room to grow for more technical roles if you're in Australia (would need to move countries)

Pros

SAS offers remarkable stability thanks to its 50 years old history and private ownership. The company does not follow the aggressive efficiency trends of many competitors, which translates into a manageable workload and a relatively stress-free environment. Work-life balance is excellent, making it an ideal choice for those who value a predictable “9-to-5” schedule. Benefits are decent, and the overall atmosphere is calm and secure: perfect for professionals seeking job security rather than rapid career progression.

Cons

On the downside, the culture feels outdated and resistant to change. The organization operates more like a public institution than a modern tech company, with slow processes and limited mobility. Many employees have been in the same role for decades, and advancement opportunities are scarce. Internal processes are complex and often inefficient, while proprietary products tend to be overly complicated, reflecting an old-school approach to technology. Knowledge is concentrated among a few “gurus,” creating a hierarchical and closed environment. Compensation is average, and training resources are not particularly effective.
