Reviews about "health insurance"
Return to all Reviews- Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Leadership cares about their employees
Cons
Health Insurance premiums could be much better
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. We offer a diverse range of comprehensive benefits to meet your needs, as well as promote health and wellness.
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
-Very diverse group -Abundance of contacts within the company -SAIC IT team is great -Large Organization with many contracts -ther is nothing else great about this company, it's defiantly the worse contract company I've ever worked for in my 20 years of working contracts.
Cons
-PTO earning is horrible compared to most other companies -Pay could be better compared to competitors -Never any employee reviews or performance reviews -Make sure you get everything in writing when hired, I was lied to about my PTO and how much I would earn when hired only to find out later it was much less and nothing I can do about it. I didn't print and save my contract I signed digitally and they no longer give me access to it so there is no way to prove what I was promised. -PM high turn over so you constantly have a new boss that are always playing catchup. -PM's have no idea what's going on in contract (because of high turnover) -You are just a cog in the big machine and you will never be noticed or complimented -No employee appreciation -Health insurance isn't the greatest -They don't care about their base level employees -My contract has been 10 people short for over a year, they don't replace people when they leave so the people who remain get stuck doing 5 other peoples jobs. -Bad environment for mental health -Getting money for training is near impossible

- Current Intern★★★★★
Pros
I have enjoyed my time at SAIC. My coworkers are fantastic and the company has treated me well.
Cons
No health insurance if you are an intern
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Good pay. Since it is a contracting world, any "pros" I would give wouldn't really be relevant to anyone looking at a job with SAIC.
Cons
The benefits aren't that great. Health insurance costs a stupid amount of money if you want it to actually cover healthcare costs. Im currently paying $300 a month for 75% coverage after my family meets the $4000 deductible. To get the PPO that would actually pay for services before meeting the deductible, it was going to cost close to $1000 a month for a family. The PTO is also determined by the contract you are on. The first contract I was on gave me 12 days a year (sick and vacation time). It took two years to get up to 13 days. After I changed contracts within SAIC, it changed to 18 days a year, which is better but still not great. I have twice now had to look at new jobs because of contracts being cancelled. Some would just say that is the contracting world, but it still sucks for the non-C level employees who actually have bills to pay and can't afford to go without a paycheck.

Pros
If you are very comfortable at a base salary with minimum raises then this is the company for you. The only true pro is the ability to have flexible hours.
Cons
Zero employee appreciation, typical government contractor, no bonuses, lousy health insurance

- Current Employee, more than 10 years★★★★★
Pros
Flexible schedule Competitive salaries Interesting work
Cons
They do not care for their employees; since the IPO in 2006, they have continually stripped us of our overall benefits. The health insurance is lousy coverage with high deductibles, so you are paying more and seeing less in your pocket even though the salaries are good. The 401K match has decreased from 6% to 4.5%. They have stripped senior employees (10+ years) of leave benefits to make things more equal among the newly acquired Engility employees. Starting in 2019, senior employees have had 4 days of vacation taken away, so you can only ever max out at 4 weeks of vacation per year. Overhead events, like holiday parties and summer picnics, now take place during the workweek (or not at all) during working hours. Training and certifications, once something that SAIC invested in, is something they no longer invest in. Hostile work environments are pretty commonplace and includes such things sexual harassment, career sabotage, and retaliation. Definitely a "good old boys club" in management; if you go to HR, you won't be outright fired but it'll get worse until you quit your job.
