      Pros

      Very friendly team that have given me space and help to onboard and pick up the ropes without any felling of pressure - something I haven't felt elsewhere (likely my own doing).

      Cons

      Very old company with old ideas if software engineering. If you are working on application level this is less apparent.

      Great for Stability, Not for Ambition.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      SAS offers remarkable stability thanks to its 50 years old history and private ownership. The company does not follow the aggressive efficiency trends of many competitors, which translates into a manageable workload and a relatively stress-free environment. Work-life balance is excellent, making it an ideal choice for those who value a predictable “9-to-5” schedule. Benefits are decent, and the overall atmosphere is calm and secure: perfect for professionals seeking job security rather than rapid career progression.

      Cons

      On the downside, the culture feels outdated and resistant to change. The organization operates more like a public institution than a modern tech company, with slow processes and limited mobility. Many employees have been in the same role for decades, and advancement opportunities are scarce. Internal processes are complex and often inefficient, while proprietary products tend to be overly complicated, reflecting an old-school approach to technology. Knowledge is concentrated among a few “gurus,” creating a hierarchical and closed environment. Compensation is average, and training resources are not particularly effective.
