SAS Institute Reviews in Raleigh-Durham, NC Area

Pros
Company benifits and hours of work. SAS has some of the best facilities, offices, gyms, grounds, child care centers and healthcare facilities. The cafeterias are excellent. Most people only work 35 hours a week and its a very laid back environment.
Cons
Very clickish and few career opportunities. Most senior leadership has "grown-up" in SAS and its all about who you know. There is a lot of politics under the covers and if are not a part of the right crowd you can forget it.
Also, for a technology company it is a VERY WHITE company. In my 7 years at SAS I came across very few non-whites and almost none in management.Advice to Senior Management
Propmote based upon performance and not whom you know
