Great place to work

Business Outlook

Pros

Professional company with lots of support and great compensation. Big company but divisions are close. Always someone you can go to for advise or assistance.

Cons

Jobs are defined by the contracts. Senior staff is involved with proposal writing which is sporatic but can be time consuming.

Business Outlook

Pros

The technical staff is, for the most part, very sharp and focused on providing the best solutions to their customer's problems. Wages and benefits are competitive enough and the company is always trying to grow. SAIC supports a good balance between work and private life and the company and employees regularly pull together to help support a fellow employee through a sudden hardship or donate to charity. A diverse contract pool and willing management allows for freedom of movement between projects.

Cons

The company is making a big push to grow and become a real competitor to the big boys. Re-organizations are a constant theme and management is always under the gun to hit ever increasing budget plans. Time sold and the almighty dollar is the new motto. An unhealthy amount of in-fighting among management often distracts from providing great service to the customer and increases the amount of work needed. Career development paths look good on paper but the implementation plan hasn't materialized.

Good company to work for in good times.

Business Outlook

Pros

You are treated with respect and allowed a great deal of freedom. Admin is handled through the company website and is fairly efficient and painless. Lots of online training available.

Cons

You are on your own. Each office is almost 100% independant which is good when times are good but when things go south you get dropped in an instant. HR is almost totally useless when you are in a redeployment situtation.
