Pros

Great people, smart, professional, cooperative. I enjoyed working there quite a bit! SAS works with the best companies in the world so lots of great exposure.

Cons

Proprietary coding language makes it difficult to stay modern and attract new talent. After six full years, I began to feel stagnant both career wise and technologically.

Pros

cafeterias, gym, healthcare, child care (once you've been there for about 3 years). The company benefits are excellent. The building are new and beautiful. The Cary campus is wonderful.

Cons

out of touch management - I worked in the Sas solutions on demand group (SSOD) , and it's very different from what you hear about SAS. You are expected to work 50+ hours per week, many times through the night without any time off the next day. There is no work/life balance, like the older parts of SAS have. This division is run completely differently from the rest of the company. No one from the rest of the company will move into this department, and it's commonly spoken of as a "sweat shop." Even if you use this as a foot in the door to the company, there's no guarantee that you'll get to move to another division, even after you have served the required year in this division. SAS is a great company, but they have really fallen down on this division.
