Pros

Work from home on Monday and Friday. Even though I wonder how much actual work is being done on those days

Cons

Disengaged management, command-and-control style management, manage by numbers. Only interested in stock price. No interest in employees. 1960s managers with old style mindsets. Company has lost many contracts due to bad management and disengaged employees. No future with this company

Pros

When it was still SAIC, and still an "employee owned company", it was amazing. The benefits were great, the employees were more about being a "team". It taught me a lot, the corporate environment, professionalism, and what a work family was like.

Cons

When the company went public (before the split) the downward spiral started. Layoffs became a normal occurance. The split to two companies (SAIC and Leidos), only exasperated that. More focus on micromanagement, constant realignments. I get that organizations need this, but it became too frequent. When my department was laid off, I looked elsewhere for work. I was exhausted from the continuous change. Change is good, but not as often as it happened there.
