Pros

They have work and constantly looking for good talent.

Cons

Well let's say HR shelters bad SVPs/VPs. It seems like everyone here is a Director/VP/SVP and all of them are protected by being jerks to employees. I'll leave it at that as no matter which group you go into, SAIC does a good job of corrupt management especially after Two of the former CEOs. There is a really strong good ole boys club at VP levels and above. Benefits go up and raises are usually 0% -2% if you are lucky. You will take the blame for ineffective management at top levels. Turnover is a major issue. Vacation time you will never get a chance if you are trying to get a raise or be a good employee.

Pros

Great environment, great culture, everyone seems very willing to help and listen to others ideas and grow within themselves.

Cons

I wish there was a little bit more work that allowed us to learn during it, sometimes I feel pressured to just do the work rather than understand it. I also know that due dates are required, so that is a thing as well.

Pros

- Competitive Benefits - Flexibility on schedule - Knowledgeable staff and coworkers

Cons

- Increased focus on corporate profits has had a negative effect on lower level staff. - Long time experienced Managrs who care about customer wants and quality are being cleared out for MBA types who care more about sales and cost cutting. - Corporate culture that led me to stay for 11+ years has eroded under the last two CEOs. - Pay can be stagnant compared to market depending on contract pricing.
