Pros

SAS Institute is the largest privately owned software company and has a unique business model with a very strong corporate culture. It is a company you are proud of. SAS has the leading technology for analytics -full stop. It is the best place to be if you are into analytics. All workplaces worldwide are fantastic - SAS owns workplaces in special locations (many of them are castles)... let alone the Cary campus!

Cons

In many departments the structure is largely flat so career opportunities may be limited. As any big company there is some politics involved. Salary could be more competitive - local offices do not have as many perks as the Cary campus.

Pros

Benefits: health coverage, on-site gym, childcare, healthcare center, and more. Work-life balance: predictable hours, flexibility for parents and a culture that doesn't expect you to grind 60-hour weeks.

Cons

Compensation lags the market, slow career advancement and promotions can take years. Change-resistant culture and new ideas move slowly. Leadership team manages up to just one person.
