Pros

Secure employment, reasonable benefits, good work environ.

Cons

Too secure employment encourages defensive wall making and little innovation by nearly all managers – most managers have been with SAS for tens of years or are friends with a long entrenched manager. This includes all of the original SAS staff – and of course, knowing Jim is always a plus.

Pros

Great benefits if you work in Cary, average if you work elsewhere. Generally good co-workers. Ethical workplace. Great office locations.

Cons

Very insular and politcal workplace. The technology is far behind the times, and falling further. SAS skills are no longer percieved as valuable in the employment market.

Pros

Company fosters learning and as such it is a great place to start your career. The management I spoke too was quite forthcoming, and easy going.

Cons

While communication between managers and employees was good it could be much better. At times I felt like I was not being used to my full potential.
