Pros

SAIC has great intentions and a good heart. For example, they conduct Gallup surveys within the company and address their short-comings. They just need to be careful in their growth not to lose their heart and keep treating employees with respect.

Cons

SAIC came out with their "One SAIC" mantra a couple years ago, to promote various groups working together cohesively. It hasn't materialized yet. Groups on the same level at times compete for the same contract, and management keep passing strict requirements (during these economic tough times) downward, causing tensions from one level to the next.

Great people; average compensation

Business Outlook

Pros

Quite competent technical teams in general; management fair and doesn't micro-manage. Flexible schedules, challenging work, unreasonable year-end deadlines but program management does their best to provide support. Very nice empoyee break area with cold water, ice, great coffee and tea. Middle management works hard to create a sense of unity amongst teams.

Cons

Cross displinary team communication and priorities are at odds. Salaries are on the low side for the industry and area. The physical work space is horrendous; such low unpadded walls that all conversations carry. No cube chairs for visitors so they must stand and disturb everyone in the immediate area when having a technical discussion.
