Pros

Onsite Healthcare/Pharmacy Onsite Gym Some flexibility with hours

Cons

Base salary is hardly enough to squeak by on unless you come in from the outside -- embarrassingly large discrepancy of pay from one employee to another. Commission structure is horrible and unfortunately your success will be largely attributed to luck and your territory and less to any real talent and hard work. Territories are grossly uneven, goals are incredibly unobtainable. Management doesn't fight for employees - you get a lot of "this is just the way it is." Most of the department is unhappy and seeking new jobs. Commission for the entire year of 2018 hasn't been paid yet due to management failing to have compensation plans in place. Projected date of first payment for 2018 commissions ...May or June. A lot of people ask and wonder if SAS gets away with some of this because they're a privately held organization. It's not surprising to us internally that we are falling off of "greatest places to work." Career opportunities are far and few - especially now that so many employees in the department are looking to get out!

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.
