Pros

Great company, salary, benefits and management. good 401k matching, ESOP, they really seem to look out for employees deployed OCONUS to help them find local positions when they return stateside

Cons

some employees are retards that only get jobs because of who they know, also fear retaliation for reporting slacker employees if they are friends of 'the boss'

Pros

Work from home, Federal government projects

Cons

You are just a number, they do not care about you, providing training, or upward movement. If the contract you are hired for goes away they will give you 30 days notice beforehand and lay you off with no severance. Their "health insurance" is basically catastrophic coverage, you use your own money to pay for everything. Beware - Do not work for SAIC. Worst government contracting company I've ever worked for!

Pros

I've worked for several defense companies; I am happy to report SAIC is at the top of my list of preferred defense contracting companies. I've had horrible experiences with some defense companies, mediocre experiences with others but very positive experiences working for SAIC. My first experience working for SAIC was for an Army military base in Hawaii. I was young then and still finding myself therefore I do not have too much input. The 2nd time I worked for SAIC was for a project at an Air Force Base. While working on this project SAIC presented me with a Golden Opportunity to work OVERSEAS in Sicily at a Naval Air Station. I jumped at the opportunity and had a wonderful 4 years of bliss soaking up the Sicilian sun, people, place and culture. I also got the chance to learn Italian. As often happens in the contracting world, SAIC lost the contract in Sicily to a lower-bidder and I was forced to change companies in order to stay in Sicily. Years later, I am happy to report, I am with SAIC again working in Taiwan. Take it from me... the company is medium sized (13K employees), has good management and the PM(s) are very compassionate/generous-of-heart/mind bosses. Overall- I recommend SAIC over all other contracting companies.

Cons

Working for SAIC can become addictive.
