Pros

Stable customer base and growth. Free lunches. No hire and fire policy. Good work life balance

Cons

Absolutely no career growth. Managers dont promote hard working individuals. Slow HR processes There is no salary correction for existing employees who came in at lower pay. Some are lucky to get good salaries. Management is like mafia. Lot of empire building Management does not care about building good products and selling. Its more about their own personal agenda. Too many layers of middle management Acquired companies such as Ariba and Successfactors have ego problems and do not want to hire candidates within SAP Slow decision making by management There is no accountability

Pros

The company culture is great, no hierarchical thinking in dev orgs A lot of new stuff happening Work-life balance is great

Cons

Company overall could be less sales-oriented and more product-oriented. Common lack of skill set and technical expertise, even in the innovation areas. A lot of lateral transfers to positions that don't fit their skill set (They also call SQL developers backend developers and surprisingly get away with it)
