Pros

One of the greatest places to work all around although there are some terrible people in management who completely take away from the SAS experience.

Cons

If you have a terrible manager than your entire career is railroaded. There are definitely managers in place that should not be and all that SAS stands for with employee relations and work life balance, etc is 100% useless when one of these monsters is your manager.

SAS the Pro and the Con

Pros

Work Life balance is exactly as advertised. Great amenities and lots of extra things to do with family. If your a coder this is great company.

Cons

Lots of politics that rule how company runs. Pay for most is about 50-75% of market due to the "benefits". Sales has very high turnover and products are no longer the juggernauts they once were. Lots of competitors that frankly can do it better, faster, cheaper. The internal culture is not the same as seen from outside.

Pros

Great people (in my division), good benefits (though not as competitive as they think), beautiful campus, decent work-life balance.

Cons

little/no opportunity for advancement. Competitors seem to be gaining and growing at a much faster rate. Company insists on using in-house, archaic software (at the expense of time and resources) instead of paying for mature, much more capable and efficient systems on the market. Budget rationale is a bit messed up (i.e. can't purchase tools we need to do our jobs, but we can hire interns and spend in other areas where it isn't needed). Sometimes we get quite mixed messages from management b/c they are trying to balance the mixed messages they are getting from higher up. Things take FOREVER.
