Far too much, but know this:
- this is a 'butts-in-seats' contractor
- they do everything they can to control salary on a group level, even disinformation
- you are a number, nothing more.
I could go on, but this is enough.
SAIC Response
5y
We are sorry to hear about your experience. Please know that we take these concerns seriously. Best of luck in your future endeavor.
Decent learning and development opportunities. Some really passionate and hard working people on your teams.
Performance management is relaxed and flexible.
Cons
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.
