      Pros

      If you need a paycheck then apply for a job at SAIC

      Cons

      It's a body shop. Hires people and let's them go as support contracts are won and lost. People in the management chain are known to be the worst in the aerospace business. Real Aerospace companies like Northrop Grumman, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, RTX, etc look rightfully look down their nose at this organization. SAIC doesn't even offer in-house programs to enhance technical and management growth. I could go on and on but hopefully you get the picture. Try to get associated with one of the mentioned real aerospace companies... having SAIC on your resume will limit your career opportunities.

      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.
