Benefits decreased by up to $10,000 this year - Project Manager SAS Employee Review

This WAS a great place to work. Unfortunately, they've decided to increase healthcare costs and allow employees to shoulder higher out-of-pocket costs. In addition, the retirement plan took a drastic hit. While HR would like you to "think" that increasing employer contributions to 6% is a great deal for employees, this is actually standard for a company of this size. Oh, and they took away the end of year employer retirement contribution - the best benefit of all (this is literally a $10k decrease in benefits for many people). But did you hear they added a few measly weeks onto maternity leave, making it more in line with other companies? I'm not sure how SAS was the best place to work in years prior, but I think they are barely squeaking by now as a "regular" company.
