Open culture; Leadership team is focussed on issues to be fixed not on politics - SAP is, compared to other employers, a company with relatively low levels of politics Global Opportunities are open on all levels - leadership team is committed to run the company with a global team, not as a kind of centralized hub& spoke system Executive Board consists of five nationalities, Different career paths possible - technical & management

Cons

Compensation for Garduates too low Employer branding at campus very low No good opportunities for MBA, its an engineering company SOme departments are really still too 'German" in their thinking and approach, though it got better ove rthe last years Innovation cycles are too long - from idea to productizaton; Diversity: Asia is often a bit neglected when it comes to participation in global or regional top management
