Pros

Compensation - salary was quite reasonable for what I was asked to do. Location - San Diego & a fairly nice office Flavia machine - ok, trying to be positive here.

Cons

Poor quality management - there are of course a few exceptions i can attest to, however in general, management tends to be disconnected, non-communicative and generally not held accountable. Automaton culture: there is very little substantive investment in developing staff capabilities, couple this with a chronic lack of creative problem solving at all levels of the organization and you get this 'checkbox' mentality that could only exist in the government contractor universe. ' Cronyism - if you are someone who believes in meritocracy, work elsewhere

Pros

Good managers at SAIC promote and motivate employees to higher positions. Good stable and reliable company to work for.

Cons

SAIC does not have a workers union. Seniority does not count. Employees who have been working at SAIC for a long time are being replace with new low hourly rate employees. The hiring manager has control on who to hire. The AR Billing department does not give employees incentive to continue with SAIC for a long term employment.
