Pros

Work Life balance. This is the place where old software people go to die. In fact, the turnover rate matches the US mortality rate. Coincidence?

Cons

No new products and those that came out were nightmares

Pros

Utopian... if you are OK not getting paid or if you are OK having account coverage and commission (Sales Credit) decisions being made based on who sleeps with whom in Cary... or maybe that was just the impression I got from many pieces of information.

Cons

Compensation. Head winds on commissions and internal Sales Credit policies limit earnings. I wish I had seen the Glassdoor post "Enterprise sellers - run from this company" before I joined. Pre-sales resources extremely reluctant to travel; emperor's new clothes. I cannot recall another company where Inside Sales holds the trump card.

The dark side of SAS

Pros

Private offices and a beautiful aesthetically pleasing campus.

Cons

There are two worlds at SAS. The dark world of SSOD (SAS Solution on Demand) and the rest of SAS. SSOD division has no work/life balance unlike whats mentioned about SAS all over the media. Your work bleeds into your nights, weekends, holidays and even your sleeping hours. They basically feel like they own your life and you are at their beck and call. SSOD is a high stress, fire fighting environment and a terrible place for a decent family life. They expect work to come before family and personal life. The rest of SAS (I hear, because I have never experienced it) is supposed to have a wonderful work/life balance like so many other reviews say. But for those of you considering SSOD, beware!
