Pros

The company gave me every opportunity to advance. I had a great time, particularly in the early days when we were still employee-owned. I loved the entrepreneurial spirit of the company and really felt like if you did a good job, you were rewarded.

Cons

The company changed a lot after Dr. Beyster stepped down. When SAIC went public, it changed the company's focus. Senior management was not interested in innovation and interesting work. They became focused completely on profit and revenue. We had a lot of senior management turnover and good managers left. I left when my Group President retired and new management was not strong.

Pros

Other than benefits there are no really great reasons to work there. This is my opinion in the matter of which I have been asked.

Cons

Well when you have employees who leave the company because the recruiters look outside before looking inside you have a problem.
