Great Remote Job for Software Engineers

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

I was hired to start a new internal software project. The company gave me a remote position, sent me a new Mac, everything I needed, and has great benefits. They have been very generous in light of the current job market. I feel like my supervisor and my boss both have my back and they trust me to get the job done. Finally, they allow me to work a 9/80 schedule. Thanks SAIC!

Cons

Some of the work is non-development related and can be tedious.
