Pros

Good work-life balance & flexibility. Ok benefits.

Cons

Stagnation in the hierarchy, not much career opportunities for internal employees. Career advancement is solely dependent on who you know not talent. HR and talent management are company weak spots.

Pros

No Pros at all! This company is on life support.

Cons

SAP has walked away from customers for the past 15 years. There has been a lack of innovation and leadership that goes straight to the top. Hence why SAP is struggling to gain revenue. SAP's lack of Executive Leadership at the top has left them behind other software companies. The consulting organization has lacked technical resources and SAP struggles to fill projects with internal candidates which leaves a bad taste with install customers.

Pros

Pre acquisition the company was awesome. Lars was an inspirational leader and made some great kool aid! Compensation was great, culture was the best I've ever experienced and there was no negativity in the workplace.

Cons

Then SAP bought SF.... The fun and exciting culture was slowly replaced by management that didn't give .02 cents to what employees think and the sales teams were incentivized to fight each other for a sale. The compensation was lowered to the point where I couldn't afford to work there anymore and who would want to anyway because there was no training or incentives to excel. The managers who were promoted because they were good at sales had no management experience and had no idea how to lead or manage teams. I couldn't find the exit door fast enough! But this is what happens when a giant company buys the market leader and tries to cut operating costs and fit it under the umbrella of the parent. There might be as many as 5 people left from pre acquisition, but probably less...
