      Pros

      Good pay and opportunities to advance if you have the proper security clearances. Lots of work in very diverse fields and opportunities to move between Business Units if you have the proper skills. Lots of attention paid to keeping recent hires motivated and retained.

      Cons

      Working managers to death. Some departments are flexible but others are will drive you unrelentingly to an early retirement. Longer term employees are not valued and management seems to be unconcerned about their satisfaction; seemingly happy to see them leave.

      Pros

      Decent learning and development opportunities. Some really passionate and hard working people on your teams. Performance management is relaxed and flexible.

      Cons

      Benefits are wildly expensive for a company of their size. Was laid off with 1.5 months notice right before Christmas. Months prior to layoff was forced to use my PTO due to gov shutdown, but was still getting my full paycheck during shutdown. I believe this was so that they could diminish our PTO banks so they would have to pay out less when they laid us off. Laid off with zero severance despite being at company for almost 4 years and being in good standing. No efforts from management to make connections for a new internal role despite being strongly encouraged to search internally. New CEO Jim is not personable at all. Gives heavy corporate and cog in a machine vibes. Rumor has it that in the defense contracting industry, SAIC will be faring rather poorly within next 1-4 years.
