Vantaggi

I met some neat people and clients. There are a handful of highly ethical people in Upper Management, but they are the minority. They still have a holiday party! You take PTO to drive to the headquarters building and snack on pretzels until 7. If that doesn’t say Party, I don’t know what does.

Svantaggi

I gave up other career opportunities to try to build a career here. Their position was that cancer is not a disability. I was laid off the minute I asked to discuss accommodation. Even though I have the layoff notice, their unbelievable position was that I had left voluntarily. When I got legal advice, several lawyers told me that SAIC was the worst of the worst and simply made no attempt to follow the law. People still call me and ask “What was that horrible company you worked for? I think I know someone who applied there.” They also put exempt personnel (most everyone) on and off Leave Without Pay when work is slow.

Vantaggi

Decent learning and development opportunities. Some really passionate and hard working people on your teams. Performance management is relaxed and flexible.

Svantaggi

Benefits are wildly expensive for a company of their size. Was laid off with 1.5 months notice right before Christmas. Months prior to layoff was forced to use my PTO due to gov shutdown, but was still getting my full paycheck during shutdown. I believe this was so that they could diminish our PTO banks so they would have to pay out less when they laid us off. Laid off with zero severance despite being at company for almost 4 years and being in good standing. No efforts from management to make connections for a new internal role despite being strongly encouraged to search internally. New CEO Jim is not personable at all. Gives heavy corporate and cog in a machine vibes. Rumor has it that in the defense contracting industry, SAIC will be faring rather poorly within next 1-4 years.
