Pros

- A lot of good people stick with the company (but unfortunately less and less so in the past few years). - Work/life balance (depending on where you work). - On target earnings (if ever applicable). - Customer-base provides decent basis for interesting projects (if you can get to them).

Cons

- Proprietary SW and "old tech" (somebody obviously slept in class). ...and even Dr Schabenberger can't make up for the missed opportunities in the analytics (e.g. ML/AI) market. - Highly introverted culture ("clan-based", could be a positive thing, but at SAS it becomes stagnant...). - Extremely political organization - across the globe (especially if you have ambitions and care about your career development).
