Pros

- Remote work - Competitive benefits package (declining in quality) - Plenty of downtime (nice) due to inefficient management (not nice)

Cons

- Little to no coordination within or across teams - Low, uncompetitive wages defended by "but the benefits" - Managers hiding disciplinary notes until they suddenly become relevant for suppressing compensation - Being laughed at by managers during compensation discussions - Remote work is used as a compensation bargaining tool, despite it being the industry standard for years and cheaper for the company - Outdated, overpriced software - Routinely exploits private-vs-public business regulations despite publicly announcing intentions to go public - Employee evaluation metrics are inconsistent, shortsighted, hypocritical, and intentionally biased against the employee - Employee skills will go unused and degrade until employees are no longer competitive candidates for similar positions at other companies - Provided technology (laptops, monitors, etc) is outdated, and requesting new tech/peripherals is clunky and dissuading - Company publicly champions its core values (authenticity, accountability, curiosity, passion) while management privately violates them

Pros

Good people are there and you can find them. They also have an amazing main campus in Cary, NC.

Cons

Downsides at SAS far outweigh the pro's. The leadership is still run by one man, JG. He overstayed his welcome at the helm of the company he founded and allowed himself to become an insulated & isolated billionaire and the products and solutions suffered. This also has impacted their revenues which have been declining since 2016 in an industry where most, if not all, others are growing in double digits.
