Pros
Very good access to important jobs Stable work environment Access to technical information Willingness by SAIC to support your customer Less management hands on at remote sites
Cons
Unless you are at San Diego or the Washington DC area, your job is only as good as the contract your are currently on. If it goes away, so do you. SAIC advertises that they have a great many opportunities across the country, but in truth, these do not exist. The company advertises all jobs at all sites, but most are already filled or the site is looking for the cheapest candidate requiring no relocation. If you are at one of the aforementioned sites, then you can move around in the company, if not don't look at SAIC as a permanent place to work. The company also advertises itself as "Employee Owned", this is no longer true. They went public several years ago and now treat employees the same as all of the other large public corporations with little regard save profits.
