      Pros

      SAIC is a very stable and reliable company to work for. The business is always in need. Great benefits packages. Company stock purchase plans. Lots of choices for medical insurance. Flexible time-off.

      Cons

      Annual review raises and bonuses don't keep up with rate of inflation.

      Pros

      If you work on the right contract within SAIC, you will see that they do some very interesting work. For the lucky employees who land the right jobs, SAIC can be a very fulfilling environment.

      Cons

      Each office is a seperate entity, and within each office are several large contract jobs. At one time, SAIC fostered an attitude of 'entrepenural' spirit. The downside was that too much leeway was given to the point were there is no centralization in anything, policy or line related. SAIC is currently moving away from this business structure, but is doing so in a manner that does not communicate anything to their employees. This leaves all of us flying by the seat of our pants, each day getting instructions that contradict last weeks.

      A pretty solid company.

      Pros

      A lot of opportunity. Washington, DC is a work-rich environment. When one contract ends, there is always another one or two to take it's place. Attrition rate is low compared to competitors. The management of the cash holdings during this recession has been stellar. I've been here for five years.

      Cons

      Somewhat of an old boy network but effort and skill will bring you recognition. I've experienced two different divisions......with one excellent experience (the last three years) and one "fair" experience (the first two years). The "fair" experience was really due to managers without management experience. I guess the downsides are what you might expect elsewhere.
