Pros

- Assisted Transitions between Contracts - Great company culture - Diverse array of options

Cons

- Profit-driven - Poor healthcare(costed me between 8000 and 16000 a year for medical(incl. dental & vision)) - Compensation is well below the industry average and even seasoned employees make less than entry level at other organizations. - Largely contract work for Federal agencies... employer alters diversity and other employee well-being "commitments" to satisfy their customers. - Contract work is impermanent and often subject to the whims of the customer, regardless of whether the employee was held in high regard.

Pros

They have work and constantly looking for good talent.

Cons

Well let's say HR shelters bad SVPs/VPs. It seems like everyone here is a Director/VP/SVP and all of them are protected by being jerks to employees. I'll leave it at that as no matter which group you go into, SAIC does a good job of corrupt management especially after Two of the former CEOs. There is a really strong good ole boys club at VP levels and above. Benefits go up and raises are usually 0% -2% if you are lucky. You will take the blame for ineffective management at top levels. Turnover is a major issue. Vacation time you will never get a chance if you are trying to get a raise or be a good employee.
