Pluspunten

You will probably get the chance to work with some very intelligent people and get involved in some interesting projects. The actual work isn't the bad part of the company. They do their best to support their workers, sometimes not able to (see Cons below). Good for a mid-career employee and those who knows what track they want to be on for a while/rest of career.

Minpunten

Each little division in SAIC has it's own budget for everything. They can not support an employee interested in another competency area of the company. Their training budget is woefully underfunded and very narrowly applied to what is in each division's best interest. Not a good company for an entry level employee or those who aren't sure of career path. I say this because if you want to change from your current job to another field that SAIC specializes in (and even one that has huge growth) they have no system to say "Hey, this is a good employee we should support them and hire them in this division". Maybe I'm just hoping for too much.

Pluspunten

Decent learning and development opportunities. Some really passionate and hard working people on your teams. Performance management is relaxed and flexible.

Minpunten

Benefits are wildly expensive for a company of their size. Was laid off with 1.5 months notice right before Christmas. Months prior to layoff was forced to use my PTO due to gov shutdown, but was still getting my full paycheck during shutdown. I believe this was so that they could diminish our PTO banks so they would have to pay out less when they laid us off. Laid off with zero severance despite being at company for almost 4 years and being in good standing. No efforts from management to make connections for a new internal role despite being strongly encouraged to search internally. New CEO Jim is not personable at all. Gives heavy corporate and cog in a machine vibes. Rumor has it that in the defense contracting industry, SAIC will be faring rather poorly within next 1-4 years.
