      Pros

      Salary was higher than the average

      Cons

      You are only as good as the contract once the contract is over you are gone. Unless you are one of their chosen people. Good old boys mentality. Not what you know it is who you know. Lot of ass kissing required especially to their customers. The mamangement is awol when you have a conflict with the client. You are as the engineer a sitting duck management will throw you in front of the bus inn hearth beat. HR Sucks they have the worst HR in the US. They never there if you need them to ask about your benefits etc. But they are very quick to point out if there is any discrepacy in your records or application etc. I would never work for them or recommend them to any of my friends.

      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.
