Pros

There are some really smart people at SAS. Nice office, flexible working. There is some focus on enablement and technical training. You will get some exposure to the analytics industry (don’t get mixed up with doing analytics) if you’re in sales or pre-sales.

Cons

Overall the organisation has no idea how to face the competition from open source and other vendors. SAS is fairly perceived as overpriced and difficult to deal with. Full of lifers who are unemployable outside SAS and sales folks who will only stay a few years, cash their commission and leave for better options. User base is mainly 45+, which makes selling to new accounts virtually impossible, new grads also prefer open source
