Pros

Good experience with coworkers and positive customer experience.

Cons

Areas of sales management lacking in empathy, consideration, and respect towards employees. Unqualified leaders. Favoritism. Drove employees into the ground often working 15 hr days with unrelenting harassment and publicly demeaning employees. Behavior was overlooked and condoned by senior leadership who turned a blind eye.

Pros

Good pay, flexible working, healthcare

Cons

Way too much stress Constant change to org structures, management, responsibilities, expectations. Completely transactional business (you are a number on a spreadsheet) even though they strive to be a relational business. It will be hard to change whilst the measure mostly revenue

A pathetic work culture

Pros

Absolutely none for Business teams.

Cons

Your experience at SAP will depend entirely on the department that you have joined. If you have joined SAP Labs, you can even retire from there. Most folks in SAP Labs have been there for 20+ years. It's very safe for techies, although SAP has unable to develop in house even 1 futuristic product over 35 years. Shocking! If you have joined SAP in the Business side (Sales/Marketing/Customer Facing roles), then there's a good chance you won't last for 20 months unless: 1. You have a god father in the company 2. You have joined as a management trainee If you join as a lateral recruit in the sales & marketing side, from other organizations, without knowing anyone powerful inside, then God help you. All the plum roles have already been grabbed internally by the old timers. The newly created experimental roles (whose life depends on whether the business did well or not), & the junior most roles are what is published for externals. So be very cautious before taking up a SAP offer. If you think you will rise purely on merit, you would be extremely disappointed. Finally, 90% + people in the Business teams don't earn much incentives. So you will rarely be earning your annual CTC.
