Innovation: a product of culture and relationships
Our customers are more than customers – they’re partners. We consider you an extension of our team, and SAS as a part of yours. Your business relies on relationship stability and strength in tenure to deliver the expertise and innovation you’ve come to rely on. Our world-renowned workplace culture has directly contributed to our innovation since the beginning. Keeping our employees nurtured at all stages of their careers keeps them motivated and loyal. With the lowest turnover rate in the industry, SAS retains our subject matter experts and the trusted advisors critical to your business needs. Analysts esti- mate that SAS annually saves millions of dollars on recruitment and training costs associated with our low turnover. Couple that savings with our high annual revenue investment, and it’s easy to see how our culture directly impacts the relationships and innovation we provide to you.
Sustainable innovation
for a brighter future
Since 1976, SAS has been a sustainability innovator through environmental, social and economic e orts. We work closely with employees, suppliers and custom- ers to foster an award-winning, sustain- able workplace that has a positive impact on our future. SAS reduces its environ- mental footprint with multi-year pro- grams focused on energy conservation and solar projects, emission manage- ment, pollution mitigation, water conser- vation, waste reduction and recycling, procurement and green building.
Commitment to education
Education drives economic growth, and we are committed to developing the next generation of innovators. By supporting e orts that prepare more graduates for college, work and success, SAS plays a vital role in the global community. In 2016, Money magazine called SAS Analytics “the most valuable job skill.” To bridge a persisting analytics skills gap, SAS makes it easy to build those skills by targeting worldwide education initia- tives in STEM to ensure the next generation of innovators has the knowledge and skills to succeed.
