SAIC Employer Reviews

I love my job at SAIC, I learned about networking, my co-workers became each other family. Hardest was saying when our contract end with LAUSD. Going a bay cruise for dinner.

This job was very educational because we install electronic equipment in mine resistant vehicles for SPAWAR.And each part of the military install electronic equipment differently in vechicles.

This was my second time working for SAIC on the RCAS Contract. Worked very hard, but had a good time doing it. Managers did the best they could to manage a difficult customer, who unfortunately were not the end users. Our end users loved us, but our government managers were not always as logical as we would have liked.

The workload is consistent and diverse. There is most likely at least one team if not a number of teams that any given person can comfortabley adapt to. Team members are friendly, helpful, and supportive. Local management is fair, helpful and resourceful.

Can't say enough about the people I've worked with and for. We all worked as one, worked every little issues out together and if someone didn't know something we were all able to gather the required info to help.

As contract full time employee SAIC is a great company to work for, good management, work to life balance, and benefits.

Busy job, I should act multitask and be prepared for all sudden changing in process of project, should help in other aspects in addition my direct responsibilities as per supervisor request.

A typical day at work is reflected on my resume. The duties are varied. You must be able to interact with many different personalities. Management is very flexible with their employees. The co-workers are excellent. The hardest part of the job is the constant changes with travel. The most enjoyable part of the job is the interaction with co-workers – more... and government employees which is required for all aspects of the job. – less

I love this place I wish I could stay here for ever nice environment nice co-workers and managment

If your are serious about employment don't go to SAIC. I know this company well. They are all smoke and mirrors. They want you to think they are the best but after splitting this company is not employee friendly. Read about the New York scandal. There software processes and culture is unreasonable and the managers are not experienced and make poor decisions – more... based on friendships and who likes you. Don't go there. The market is getting strong don't get stuck working for this company. They are not the preferred vendor for government contracts and will loss future contracts. Try BAE Systems or Northrop L3, or others which are way better. DONT be FOOLED, I am telling the truth, There might be pockets of good but Orlando is NOT ONE OF THEM. – less

Management has almost no technical under-pinning. No strategic vision on systems development.

Upper management forgets the folks out in the field, in the customer work space. Very little reachout by management to offsite employees.

Reviewed customer requests for conference room and/or VTC use and scheduled according to priorities. Worked conflicts to ensure everyone equal usage of the brigade's resources if at all possible.

A typical work day was boring with hardly any tasking. I did learn contracting and financial skills while working for SAIC. Management seemed not interested in my tasking or what my skills were. My co-workers were somewhat friendly. The hardest part of the job was going to work knowing my skills were not going to be used and knowing I would not have – more... anything to do. There were not any enjoyable parts of my job. – less

Typical government contracting juggernaut in the DC area.

Great working environment. Co-workers are friendly. SAIC focuses on high ethics and integrity. Very impressive company.

Complex electro-mechanical CADD Designer performing on quick reaction projects. Prepares CADD generated engineering designs, and manufacturing drawing packages with associated lists of complex electronic chassis and components in accordance with contractual requirements to support Engineering, Manufacturing, and customer documentation of electro/mechanical – more... equipment. Models are created in 3D using SOLIDWORKS. Design layouts and drawing packages are created in 2D using AutoCAD. Printed circuit boards (PCB) drawing packages created using SOLIDWORKS program CircuitWorks. File management using project data base management software (EPDM). – less

I worked with people who are friendly, willing to help, and knowledgable in their field. I monitored/worked incoming tickets related to equipment performance and access. I monitored a small batch on the mainframe; made any call-outs needed in event of failed jobs.

Good culture, but it's being affected by the defense cuts. I've had good managers and my co-workers are nice, I'm only leaving because of my family.

Promotions based on personal relationships
Don't take the time to plan with all staff just higher ups or when they do they don't listen
