Pros

SAS can be great for some, the benefits are great and they have a top-notch fitness program. On-site health care is convenient for immediate illnesses.

Cons

The company has a lot of under-employment and complacency. There is also a lot of nepotist. The biggest issue is that there lack of mobility/advancement.

Pros

Strong HR that really offers a lot of perks. Nice people to work with.

Cons

Third Consulting VP in three years, direct reports have changed even more often. You are stuck at your job level unless you work in one of the regional offices. There in no career path planning, which is not surprising given the constant change in management.

Pros

Pay is adequate, benefits are good, job security is virtually guaranteed if a) you work at corporate, b) you don't make waves, and c) value internal politics over personal or unit productivity. Sense of urgency is an unknown concept in most units. This company and its culture would never survive in a public-company setting.

Cons

Senior management provides little leadership and less vision. CEO is a great technologist with no respect for how business gets done. Sales teams are regularly belittled in regular CEO videos. If you work for SAS outside of the corporate environment, you are looked upon as a 2nd class citizen at best. While company's loyal user base will provide a revenue cow to milk for a while, more nimble competitors will erode the fortunes of this one-trick pony.
