Pros

Very social at times, generally positive take outlook on things, opportunities to grow within the business.

Cons

Base pay can be below market rate which is made up for by bonus structure, no matter what role you're in. Regional employees and offices are often governed by the sometimes out-of-touch HQ in North Carolina, USA. This can frequently cause a discord between the SAS US business and SAS in the rest of the world.

Pros

Benefits: health coverage, on-site gym, childcare, healthcare center, and more. Work-life balance: predictable hours, flexibility for parents and a culture that doesn't expect you to grind 60-hour weeks.

Cons

Compensation lags the market, slow career advancement and promotions can take years. Change-resistant culture and new ideas move slowly. Leadership team manages up to just one person.
