“I knew what I wanted to do, but I didn’t know what the job title was,” explains Lisa. “The analyst relations role is perfect. It allows me to do what I love – teaching, meeting new people, project management – without losing the analytical skills I’ve honed in the legal

Jason Colón was hoping to work on a data for good project – any data for good project, really – offered through SAS’ analytic volunteer program. He had no idea the one he would be asked to do would hit so close to home for him. The organization – which
It was the summer of ’22. And in the words of Taylor Swift, “I remember it all too well” (Taylor’s version, of course).

With all that’s happened over the last two years, there has never been a greater need for inspiration, connectedness and learning. And for that, we need to look no further than our curious employees! That’s the idea behind Big Ideas, our internal series of short, inspiring employee talks. Each year,
There are many factors that influence an employee's experience at a company, and one of the most important is the positive impact of a strong leader.

But when Cindy Turner, Sr. Communications Specialist, sees an abandoned mobile home, she sees something different: opportunity. Cindy’s Big Idea “I kept seeing more and more about the lack of affordable housing in
