Pros

SAS still has great products especially in the areas of risk and financial crimes. SAS has great expertise in truely operationalising and deploying models into production. This is often an underated capability.

Cons

Analytics has become commoditised and SAS can no longer charge premium prices. SAS has an out dated commercial structure. There is poor managment diversity and in country offices like Australia the culture is positively toxic and has very high turnover.

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.
