Pros

- Very smart people working on cutting edge analytics technology. - Nice campus and great break and lunch rooms - Dr's office and pharmacy on-site - individual offices - great place for a recent graduate to become familiar with analytics and big business (but best to plan your exit after 2-3 years if you ever want to pay off your student loan) - work with fortune 100 and fortune 500 companies solving real business problems

Cons

- very little opportunity for advancement, promotion, or recognition (unless you're in the right cliq) - lot's of people just coasting until retirement - old-guard are very embedded, and their dated ideas are blocking innovation and development - salary is pitiful compared with similar companies - particularly when looking at salary growth over time - while SAS touts their benefits, really they are on-par with what is available from other organizations in the same industry sector - quite a number of "Dolores Umbridge" wannabe's in leadership positions. If she's your favorite Harry Potter character, you'll fit in fine - very cultish in culture. you're either in or you're out - staff have unwarranted feelings of superiority over peers from other organizations - no communicated succession plan, and no expected employee win-fall should the company ever go public - due to SAS' reputation of being a "lax place to work", hard to be taken seriously by other companies when interviewing elsewhere
