Pros

Beautiful campus. Delicious food with a wide range of options. Easy 35 hour work week, no pressure to work more. People are very friendly. Huge array of amenities (gym, salon, fitness classes, running trails)

Cons

You will not be challenged at this company. If you are looking for a job where you keep your head down, perform the bare minimum of your job requirement, and just have to play politics to stay where you are, SAS is for you. Pay is well below industry average. Benefits (that are supposed to compensate for lower pay) are industry standard. Most benefits are only helpful for those with children/families. All in all, if you are looking for an easy, cushy job with okay pay where you will never be forced out, come work for SAS for the rest of your life like everyone else here. If you are looking for a dynamic, challenging environment where you learn and have lots of opportunity for growth and upward mobility, stay far far away.

Pros

Beautiful campus, benefits are amazing.

Cons

Too many “lifers” at SAS, lost touch with best practices. Promotions based on personal relationships versus truly being the best person for the job. HR seems to protect itself and has grown its kingdom. Out of touch management. IPO seems extremely unlikely.
