Pros

Great team building. Very good training. Excellent communication with Management.

Cons

May not be actually working for SAIC but, more as a contract worker to one of their many contracts. "Trickle down" effect for salary increases.

Pros

Biggest pro... lots of work and lots of contracts if you need lateral movement or a program ends. Decent benefits if you are corporate or corporate-adjacent. Corporate employees do have a different fringe level.

Cons

Do not believe when you are told corporate culture surveys, or any surveys are anonymous. I was questioned by SAIC legal about a corporate culture survey, asked about my opinions, why I had them and was laid-off two weeks later. This was after 4+ years as an employee with good-great review periods, happy customer interactions and great coworkers. When I asked why they questioned me, legal told me there was no true entitlement to anonymity, as I was doing the survey on a corporate asset and the SAIC domain.
