Pros

Salary and benefits are generally very good, the company is leader on ERP world and the customer IB is really huge. Great partner network

Cons

Very old fashioned way to treat employees. No respect no inspiration no coaching. Leaders lead by fear and new ideas are not welcomed

Pros

The customers, SAP customers are some of the most loyal I have ever met and I loved all the interactions that I had with them. SAP takes a pretty conservative approach to change and taking on new trends, but when they do decide to take on a trend they tend to go all in. The employees are pretty loyal as well, you are paid well and treated well for the most part.

Cons

In my years at SAP I loved it, great work, new products, they do push that they are the 'Innovation Company' but they lack an innovation strategy, they are so far behind their competitors in many regards. HANA was a blip and put them ahead but I left because I wanted to innovate with my customers and SAP was too slow. The amount of re-organisations that happen, change is good but I always felt change at SAP put everyone 6 months back. You get pigeonholed at SAP, if you come in with a specific skillset, trying to move to other places and technologies is hard, Advancement is a challenge as well, unless you are very political. Once you get into management, you then just become a manager and you become stagnant. You don't have the autonomy that you get in other fast paced organisations.

Thank you so much for your review. It's unfortunate to hear of the issues with management. The mission of our leaders is to drive innovation, but we want our employees to enjoy what they do. We appreciate your feedback and sorry to hear that the team did not work out for you.

Pros

- Great product which should sell itself - flexibility to work from home at times. - Nice office fit out since moving to SAP. -Incentive trips overseas

Cons

- Plenty of office politics, with groups of people on the in, keeping you on the outer. This effected the results as you rely on other teams. - People talk behind your back to management - Customer territory allocations were incorrect making you ask questions - Lack of support from different teams for new staff
