      Pros

      It was at one time a very interesting and caring company.

      Cons

      I was a long time employee (almost 30 years) and my project went to Leidos as a result of the company split. Unfortunately my tenure at Leidos did not last very long and after 2 1/2 weeks I returned to SAIC. I want to emphasize that I had left (involuntarily) SAIC and then returned after 2 1/2 weeks. I had to start ALL OVER. It turns out that my nearly 30 years of service to that company did not count for anything. While with SAIC there was absolutely no discussion at my location about the split and what it would mean to the employees.

      Pros

      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.
