Pros

Benfits are OK Pay is OK

Cons

Most people who work for the San Diego office have been there for thier entire careers. Very hard to break down this wall if you are are not part of this crowd. They single you out and treat you poorly if you are not. Do not recommend working in the SD office if you are new to the environment.

Pros

Great minds and opportunities to work on projects that matter. SAIC as a company is a great place to work and for the most part a great set of people to spend a career with.

Cons

If you are not experienced in your poistion or move up through the ranks do not expect any asssitance. Whether you like it or not you will need to adapt and roll with the failures as most times your management has little or no time to train/ mentor you in the ways of your new position. This can be very difficult if its a job you have never performed. Also be aware that despite how competitive they are saying their pay methodology is. it is closely guarded and come to my discovery very suspect.

Pros

Benefits, some interesting work. i'm reaching here ...

Cons

Nepotism, inexperienced/Inept management, double standards. Failures such as FBI VCF and CityTime are evident as symptoms of my own division. The current regime in my division ran off the good leaders and people.
