Pros

Trainings are free.The cons outsurpass the pros !

Cons

The SAP SDC is a subsidiary of SAP India....and it is the worst company to work for by far ! highly unprofessional management and HR...most of the managers shout most of the time like they are in a fish market, no respect for employees, high pressure,no work life balance,irregular work timings, heavy politics, cheap language and behavior, if you want a promotion then sleep with your manager and many more ! I have seen people start to drink and smoke due to heavy mental and physical pressure .
