      SAIC reviews

      SAIC is a good company to work for as a corporate employee, but as contractor, you're a bit on your own. - Task Manager SAIC Employee Review

      Pros

      Great pay and benefits. Good training opportunities. Lots of different industries to 'break into'. Smart workforce. HR works really well with employees!

      Cons

      Contractors are valued only for the contract that they're on. Even if a contractor has an interest, drive or talent to bring to corporate, management isn't always the most helpful in helping the employee find those opportunities. This is generally not the fault of management (and of course the employee needs to do the legwork), but contract programs aren't typically designed where the Program Managers have much opportunity to spend with these employees, and the company losses a lot of talent to the competition.

      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.
