Vantaggi
I marginally recommend working for SAIC/Leidos but beware of lost contracts, loosing coverage and being laid-off!!! The original "Beyster" corporate culture, "sense of family" and ethical behaviors were the best attracting features. Compensation always seemed to follow productivity and quality. The people above and blow the chain-of-command were mostly outstanding. I walk away with a company-paid-for college degrees and certificates.
Svantaggi
Sadly there did not seem to be much motivation to retain a 16-year employee at the spin-off but such are the inherent risks with "contract work". Contract work is not for the faint-hearted. When the coverage ends, expect to be laid-off. Did not seem that much was being done to find me coverage. I would have hoped for some more loyalty and effort to assist me in my efforts to coverage but obviously it did not happen. Only 4 weeks allowed for being on the bench before the laid-off. No severance and limited/simplistic career transition support.
