Stay away if you care about your career - R&D SAS Employee Review

SAS is filled with under achievers, incompetent employees. Average age is pretty high and most of the employees are 60+, think of it as a retirement center. Some of the directors are just like grandparents, you would sometimes need to go visit, talk to them about their health problems, their kids and if you start talking technical, they will not be able to understand at all. I was asked to explain one thing 6-7 times and each time they looked surprised. The salary is a lot under market rate, they easily pay half of your value that you can get other places. No raise, which is unbelievable and the bonus was like a joke (less than 3%). The 401k is only 3%, much less than other companies, which is probably why senior employees have to keep working at this age. No stock or profit sharing. As others said, the "best place to work" on fortune, etc must be rigged or bought or something. None of the employees I know have received any survey for that.
